Tee Ritson

🏃‍♂️💨 One of the fastest men in rugby league, Tee Ritson is electric to watch…

Tee was born in Thailand, but raised in Maryport, Cumbria, and began his rugby league career with Workington Town’s academy. In 2016 he shone and received three awards at the club’s annual presentation evening including the Players’ Player of the Year, and also in that year he earned an international call-up for Thailand.

A move to Newcastle Thunder in 2018 followed for a season, before joining Barrow in 2019 where he would prove himself to be one of the Championship’s most prolific and dangerous wingers.

The proud Cumbrian representative’s try-scoring form in recent seasons has been incredible, with 70 four-pointers in 73 games for Barrow Raider during his four seasons with them. In 2022, he was the Betfred Championship’s top scorer too, scoring 33 times in 31 appearances.

Ritson joined St.Helens ahead of the 2023 season on a season-long loan from Barrow, with an option to make the move a permanent one, and this has been taken to ensure Ritson remains in the famous Red V.

Ritson has made 16 appearances in his maiden Saints campaign, scoring three times, in what has been a year adjusting to the life of being a Super League and full-time player, but he has become beloved by his teammates, with a terrific work ethic on and off the field.

During the 2023 season, the winger matched the Super League top-speed record at a freakish 36.41km/h in the Challenge Cup quarter-final victory away at Hull FC, demonstrating just how quick Ritson is.
