JACK HANSEN

Jack’s performances at both full-back and half-back earned him the Lions’ 2018 Young Player of the Year award. The son of former Swinton favourite Lee Hansen, Jack first broke through the ranks at the Leigh East community club. He then joined the Leigh Centurions set up as an 18 year old, from where he gained experience with North Wales Crusaders whilst on loan.

He joined Swinton at a difficult time in late 2017, before asserting himself in the Swinton starting line-up from the start of the 2018 campaign. During the 2019 season, Jack developed as one of the most consistent half-backs in the Championship, and his 29 appearances were the most by any Swinton player.

At the End of Season Presentation Evening, Jack won a special award for his touchline conversion which famously won the league fixture over in France, 20-18 against Toulouse Olympique.
