Tigers sign Ashton Golding

Castleford Tigers are pleased to announce the signing of Ashton Golding on a deal until the end of the 2026 campaign.

The versatile Jamaican international most recently played for the Huddersfield Giants, making 102 appearances and scoring 20 tries in the process.

He also has experience playing for Leeds Rhinos, Featherstone Rovers and Bradford Bulls.

Golding will be a valuable addition to Ryan Carr's squad, with experience across the backs in addition to his primary position of full-back.

On the signing, Tigers Director of Rugby, Chris Chester, said: "I’m really excited to get Ashton over the line for the 2026 season. 

"Ashton can cover many positions across the back line and in and around the middle of the field playing 9 and 13.

"He has worked with Ryan before at Featherstone and the one thing we know he will bring to the club is a real competitive edge. 

"It has always been our intention as a club to add players to the squad as the season went on, and Ashton's signing will give us more competition for places this year."

Golding added, on joining the club: "It feels great. What kind of club I wanted to commit to fits quite perfectly with the aspirations of this club.

"It was a no-brainer for me. I've worked under Ryan Carr before and he's a great coach, technical but also a firm leader.

"Hopefully, he can bring the best out of me now."

Tickets for a potential home debut are available now.
