​We are pleased to confirm the signing of Castleford Tigers prop forward Jimmy Beckett on an initial one-month loan deal.

​Beckett adds significant power and proven experience to the forward pack. The hard-hitting prop is no stranger to the division, having made 31 appearances for Featherstone Rovers last season, where he earned a reputation as one of the standout forwards in the competition before making his permanent move to the Super League with Castleford.

Welcome to Batley, Jimmy!

We are profoundly saddened by the sudden passing of Rugby League legend John Kear. A monumental figure in our sport and a cherished member of our Bulldogs family.

​John was integral to the Bulldogs' success, both on and off the field for a lot of years. We will all fondly remember our incredible 2016 Super 8s campaign, a historic run that rightfully earned him the Championship Coach of the Year award.

​Answering the club’s call for guidance, John returned to us late last year to lead the squad once again. A testament to his enduring loyalty and passion for the Bulldogs.

​We will deeply miss John’s commanding presence, his empathetic voice, and above all, his friendship.

​Our thoughts, prayers, and deepest condolences go out to his wife, Dawn, and the entire Kear family during this incredibly difficult time.
