Premiership Experience To Boost Birmingham Moseley Front Row
Birmingham Moseley announce the signing of Premiership experienced, tighthead prop, James Tideswell from Cinderford RFC.
James has a wealth of experience in professional rugby having played for both London Irish and London Welsh in the Premiership, LV Cup and European Challenge Cup.
He began his rugby at Old Swinford Hospital and studied Sport Science at UWE, Bristol. Following this James spent 5 years with local club Stourbridge where he made 88 appearances between 2003 and 2008.
This was followed by a spell at Plymouth Albion before joining London Irish in 2010. His time there was short making just 10 appearances before being picked up by London Welsh where he made 60 appearances between 2010 and 2014.
Yorkshire Carnegie signed him up in 2014, making 33 appearances for the club before moving to his current club Cinderford at the start of the season.
James has appeared in two Championship play off semi finals, turning out for London Welsh against Yorkshire Carnegie in 2014 and for Yorkshire Carnegie against Doncaster in 2016.
Director of Rugby for 2017/2018, Richard Protherough said:
“James will bring an extra edge and Premiership experience to our front row. Capable of playing on both sides of the scrum he will help give us a strong platform and work rate around the field. We also have young, talented props across the club and he will be the right person to help them develop.”
James Tideswell said:
“I am happy to be joining Birmingham Moseley which is a local club to me. After meeting Richard Protherough and showing me the facilities I was impressed how much the club has developed over the years. I am looking forward to next season in helping the club achieve their future ambitions”.
