A former Sandbach rugby club 'graduate' has joined Sale Sharks and has represented England at Under 18 level. 

Jos Gilmore made his debut and scored the match winning try for Sale Sharks in their Premiership Cup clash with Doncaster Knights recently.  

The former Sandbach flanker also played in the Shark's 40-7 victory over Caldy. Jos had been with Sandbach since the Under 6s and recently moved to Kirkham Grammar School on a rugby scholarship.  

 A spokesperson for Sandbach Rugby Club said: "He was signed up to Sale Shark's 24/25 senior academy in the summer and has represented England at Under 18 level. 

"All at Sandbach Rugby Club are incredibly proud of Jos and will be keenly watching his career as it progresses."
