Jared Haywood named in Australian Schoolboys squad

Wests Tigers would like to congratulate Balmain junior representative hooker Jared Haywood on being selected in the 2024 Australian Schoolboys side. 

Haywood featured for NSW Combined Catholic Colleges in today’s ASSRL U18 Nationals Final, coming off the interchange bench in their emphatic 40-12 win over NSW Combined High Schools. 

The 18-year-old has progressed through Wests Tigers' Pathways system and played his first season of SG Ball Cup with Balmain earlier in 2024.

As a member of Wests Tigers’ Black Cubs squad, Haywood has trained with the club’s Jersey Flegg Cup (U/21s) team since the conclusion of the SG Ball Cup competition and looks set to make his debut at that level in the coming weeks. 

Congratulations Jared on this outstanding achievement.
