SHEFFIELD have finalised their team for the 2025 ROWE Motor Oil Premiership campaign with Danyon Hume sealing the last spot.

The 28-year-old had a brief spell with the Tigers during their first season back in the top-flight in 2021 and he’ll again take up the role of reserve.

Since his last stint in South Yorkshire, Hume helped Ipswich to the 2023 Grand Final, where they were beaten by Sheffield, and he is now preparing for his second straight season with Berwick in the Championship.

Promoter Damien Bates said: “I’m pleased we’ve been able to offer Danyon a team place.

“He’s always a pleasure to deal with, he keeps everything straightforward and he’s always grateful for any opportunities.

“I think the year he had with Ipswich in 2023 was another big learning curve for him and after not getting in a Premiership team this year, he’s knuckled down in the Championship and his attitude is spot on.

“I think he’ll fit into the team we’ve got really well, I think he’ll learn even more from the other riders around him and it will be good to see him back at Sheffield.”

Hume joins Jack Holder, Chris Holder, Tai Woffinden, Josh Pickering, Anders Rowe and Leon Flint in Sheffield’s 2025 side.
