We are delighted to announce a dual registration agreement with Betfred Championship side, Barrow Raiders.
This partnership allows us to send players for valuable playing opportunities in a competitive environment.
We have already seen glimmers of success through this pipeline, with the most recent example prop forward, Jamie Pye enjoying a successful stint towards the back end of 2024 before signing his first professional contract with the Red Devils.
The Cumbrian outfit is looking to improve on last season’s 11th-place finish and has already retained some key players, including former Red and Challenge Cup Final try-scorer, James Greenwood.
On the commencement of our agreement, Head Coach, Paul Rowley said: “On behalf of everybody at Salford, we are delighted to reunite with our friends at Barrow.
“We have a very trusting relationship and both clubs share the same family values of which we want our players to be a part of.”
Andy Gaffney, Director of Rugby at the Raiders has also stated: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to link up with Salford ahead of the new season.
“Paul Rowley is one of my greatest friends in the game, and someone who Paul Crarey and I have great admiration for, both from a professional and personal viewpoint.
“There is a lot of trust between the three of us, and I’m sure that the players who come in to bolster our group will be motivated to help us achieve real success in 2025.”
