New Valkyrie deal for Lenham!
York Valkyrie have secured Amelie Lenham for 2027, thanks to support from Squad Builder!
The highly rated centre, who was player of the match in the Betfred Women’s Super League Grand Final, has agreed a new one year deal.
The 17-year old had a stellar season in 2026 after rising through from the Valkyrie Under 19’s.
She made her senior debut from the bench in June in the home win against Leigh Leopards and went on to make nine appearances including in the 8-6 win at Wigan to help clinch a third Super League title for the club.
Some huge try saving defensive work led to picking up the player of the match award.
Lenham is also part of the England DiSE (Diploma in Sporting Excellence) programme, as well as England Under 18 rugby union training squad.
Valkyrie head coach, Leon Pryce said: “Amelie was incredible in her first season with us at just 17 years old.
“A brilliant attitude, unbelievably tough and always willing to listen and learn. She’s a coach’s dream to work with and has a massive future ahead of her, both with us and in the game.
“Bringing young, exciting players through our pathways and giving them opportunities to develop is something we’re really passionate about and want to continue doing as a club.”
