Owen Dagnall

Owen joined the Saints at the age of fourteen from local community side Halton Farnworth Hornets to become a Saints Scholarship player. Over the two years with our Under 16s setup he would develop and join the world-renowned Saints Academy and he flourished.

Starring on the wing or at centre, he showed a promising talent of finishing tries. In 2023 over nine matches he score a remarkable 13 times, including one try in both the Semi-Final and Grand Final as St.Helens were crowned Academy Champions that year.

Dagnall’s progression continued in earnest, with more tries and representation honours as an Academy player for both Lancashire and England. More match opportunities came to keep up his progression in the Saints Reserves in both 2023 and 2024.

Midway through the 2024 season, Paul Wellens brought Owen into the First Team training environment, and in July he was included for the first time in a 21-man senior squad selection to earn his the shirt number #34.

For 2025, Owen’s focus switched fully onto being a St.Helens player in his first elite Pre-Season, with one fixed goal in mind: earn his official debut with the Club.
