YOUNG Tom de Glanville has been thoroughly enjoying his time with Otley in National League Two North.
The versatile back is dual-registered with Otley from Bath Rugby after moving north to attend the University of Leeds last summer.
De Glanville is part of the senior academy at Bath, but he says the National Leagues have allowed him to keep developing as player while he is away from his parent club.
When asked about joining Otley, de Glanville (pictured) told the NCA Rugby website: “It has been massively helpful. You join a new environment and a new group of guys and they have welcomed me.
“It's nice to be part of a team which is playing every week to win and move up the league. Everyone buys into that and I'm loving my time at Otley. Everyone is able to express themselves because of the way the coaches want us to play.”
