Darlington Mowden Park are delighted to announce the signing of Matt Dudman from Rotherham Titans. The 23 year-old is the first addition to Danny Brown’s squad for next season, and the DMP Director of Rugby was delighted with the signing. “It’s fantastic to complete the signing of Matt Dudman, who we know a lot about. Matt will bring not only his experience, but also his tenacity and enthusiasm to the squad. I’m sure he will be a massive asset for us next season.”

Dudman brings Championship experience to the Mowden side, after spells at both Rotherham and Yorkshire Carnegie. Looking forward, the young scrum half was positive about the club’s prospects next season: “I’m very excited about being involved with the club. Having spoken with the coaching team it's obvious that as a squad there is a lot of ambition to push and compete for the top places in the league and challenge for promotion to the Championship.”
