Jake Wingfield

👼 ‘Wingy’ is a strong forward who loves to give his all in the middle battles!

The former Blackbrook ARLFC junior is a proud product of the Saints’  system, having come through the Club’s Scholarship and Academy programmes and represented Lancashire at the Academy level before making his senior debut in 2020 against Salford Red Devils.

Wingfield impressed on debut and progressed to make seven First Team match appearances in 2021, before having a breakthrough season in 2022, where he racked up a further twenty appearances, including the Grand Final victory over Leeds Rhinos at Old Trafford.

2023 began in a similar vein for the 22-year-old, coming off the bench in the Saints’ seismic World Club Challenge victory over NRL champions Penrith Panthers at the BlueBet Stadium in Australia. Wingfield grabbed his first senior try in 2023 against Halifax Panthers in the Challenge Cup.

Injuries sadly limited the strong forward to just ten matches in 2023, but heading into 2024, ‘Wingy’ looked strong after working hard with his recovery. However, sport is cruel, and in an away match against Castleford Tigers, he sadly suffered a season-ending shoulder injury.

Determined to be back to 100% fitness and be at his very best for the Saints in 2025, ‘Wingy’ got over his initial disappointment with a renewed focus on being better than ever, working hard away from the Club on his own personal fitness. In October 2025, the Club confirmed Jake had signed a new contract to take Jake into the 2026 season, with 2027 and 2028 triggered dependent upon the number of appearances he makes in the subsequent years.
