Exeter Chiefs Academy back rower Connor O'Shaughnessy becomes the latest addition to Exmouth's squad ahead of the coming season.
O'Shaughnessy (18) came all the way up through the Exmouth ranks, whilst also playing for Exeter Chiefs Academy and Bicton College over the last two years. A versatile back row, Connor has benefited greatly from playing in the AASE league and Academy League and is comfortable as a 6 or 7.
Forwards Coach Stuart Lowe comments:
"Connor has a hard edge to his game, based upon aggression and a hard work ethic which are key ingredients for any back row player. He trained with the first team squad in the second half of last year and made a big impression with his positive attitude. It is great that we are seeing the benefits of a big investment in time and resource in our own junior section, as well as seeing the benefit of the Exeter Chiefs Academy system."
