Career

[edit | edit source]

Adamson attended St Ambrose College in Hale Barns where he made his mark in rugby union as a strong running centre. He also represented Cheshire (RU), but his rugby league apprenticeship was served with Leigh East amateur club where he spent three years. He made his début for the Salford City Reds versus Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in 2006. He is also an England academy player, representing England against Australia.[citation needed]

At the end of the 2012 Super League season, Adamson left the Salford City Reds due to the club's financial troubles, and returned to rugby union when he signed for Bath Rugby.[6][7]

In 2017, Adamson was signed by Oldham.[8]
