Glamorgan sign Hurle and Tribe to rookie deals

20 Oct 2023 | Cricket

Glamorgan are pleased to announce the signings of 19-year-olds Henry Hurle and Asa Tribe on Rookie contracts for the next two seasons.

Wicket-keeper batsman Hurle has graduated through the Glamorgan Academy making his second team debut in 2022.

He appeared for England u19 in their series against Ireland and Australia earlier this year and will spend the winter playing club cricket in Melbourne before linking up with the squad in the new year.

Tribe was a member of the Cardiff UCCE squad in 2023 having grown up on Jersey making his international debut for them in 2021.

Tribe was awarded the Glamorgan Balconiers Supporters Club 2nd XI Player of the Year award earlier this month after scoring back-to-back centuries and amassing 456 runs over the final four games of the season.

Rookie contracts allow players to mix education and further development opportunities with taking their first steps into the professional game.

Second XI coach Steve Watkin said of the pair “Both Henry and Asa have shown their skills across the season, and we’re delighted to be offering them their first contracts with the club. They’re both exciting talents and we’re looking forward to welcoming them into the professional environment as they continue their development.”
