Paul Prescott

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Prescott (b. January 1, 1986) is an English rugby league player. He plays prop for the Wigan Warriors. He is 188 cm in height and weighs 112 kg (17 st 9 lbs).

Paul Prescott played in the Wigan academy setup in 2003 and 2004. His amateur club had been Wigan St Judes. He was called into the first team squad in July 2004 after an injury crisis left Wigan with no fit senior prop forwards. This was Prescott’s debut from the bench against Castleford. He had to withdraw from the 2004 England Academy U-18s tour to Australia. Prescott was given a 2-year full-time contract with the Warriors in August 2004.

Chairman Maurice Mindsay commented: "Bryn Hargreaves and Paul Prescott have signed for a further two years, and as they are two of the best front row prospects in the country it gives us added satisfaction that they have all come through our Junior Development Scheme."

Prescott was selected for the Lancashire squad in the 2004 Academy Origin Series
