Knights bolster squad with two loan signings from Sale Sharks

30th September 2025

Doncaster Knights are pleased to announce the addition of two loan signings from Sale Sharks. Scrum half, Will Wooton and Prop Tye Raymont. 

Will Wootton

Will Wootton signed his first Senior Academy contract with Sale Sharks ahead of the 2023/24 season. The livewire back got into rugby after playing as a child with his two brothers. He played his junior rugby at Macclesfield Rugby Club and then, from the age of nine, at Wilmslow Rugby Club. 

Will played and captained his rugby team through junior school at Terra Nova, in Cheshire, before moving to Sedbergh School in year nine, where he was vice–captain in his final year.  At the age of 12 he caught the eye of Sharks coaches and joined the DPP, and it wasn’t long before he received international honours, being selected for England u18s’ tour of South Africa in the summer of 2022. 

Will captained England in one tour game and then was selected again to face Wales in March, 2023.

Tye Raymont

Leeds-born Tye Raymont started playing rugby at his local club, West Park Leeds, at the age of four, staying there until he was 16. 

He went to Prince Henry’s Grammar School from year seven to year 11 before leaving to go to Bishop Burton Rugby College, where he stayed until the age of 18, combining his studies with rugby at Yorkshire Academy.  

Tye, who has played for England at u18 level, joined Sale in 2022 and signed his first Senior Academy contract ahead of the 2023/24 season. 

Doncaster Knights are delighted to have two premiership standard players amongst the squad.
