Leighs first Academy in 1991 was Leigh East under 16s, a couple from Miners and a scattering from Blackbrook. Kev Anderton, Lloyd Pugsley and Keith Latham blended together a good squad of lads for whom Leigh benefited by having 3 good Pros who had good Careers.



Unfortunately, some of the Leigh East Boys got poached by Warrington, Saints and Wigan. It didnt cost heaven on earth to do this and it needs to be re-instated, quick !



On a coaching front, we have far too many fingers in the pie. Utilising some of our existing coaches to assist an Academy would seem the way to go. Alan would be an asset to that as the Leigh East Coaches came over in 1991. There should be no difference and would help the kids settle in.
