Jamie Shillcock commits future to Worcester

Warriors Academy youngster Jamie Shillcock has committed his future to Warriors by signing a new deal with the first-team.
A host of clubs were waiting to speak to the 19-year-old after a breakthrough start to the season but the Warriors managed to tie him down for the foreseeable future.
Head Coach Carl Hogg said: “Jamie has been presented with a fantastic opportunity in the early stages of the season and he's grabbed it with both hands.
“It's not easy to step up to the pace and intensity of the Aviva but as a teenager, he has shown tremendous composure and ability at the top level.
“We are delighted he has recognised that Sixways is a place where young players can learn, develop and grow through the facilities and infrastructure, and importantly, where they know they will get opportunities.
“We look forward to working with him over the coming years to try and help him realise his full potential.”
Shillcock added: “It's a dream come true for me to sign a professional first-team contract at my childhood club.
“It's been a surreal start to the campaign and I'm delighted with how things have gone.
“There's no place I'd rather be and I hope that I can push on and help this Club reach its goal of becoming one of and Europe's top teams.”
