Golding to miss start of 2021 season

Huddersfield Giants full-back Ashton Goulding will miss the start of the Betfred Super League season after sustaining a shoulder injury in pre-season training. 

The 24-year-old will require surgery on the affected shoulder and it is hoped he could return to action by late May. 

Huddersfield Giants head coach, Ian Watson said: "While it's obviously disappointing that Ashton has sustained this injury, we expect him to make a full recovery and return stronger than ever.

"We hope to see Ashton return to the field in late-May, but in the meantime we will be working to make sure he improves himself and hits the ground running when he returns to Betfred Super League action.

"Ashton is a strong individual who's come back better from injury before and last season he was tremendous after his return from injury, showing the Giants fans how good a player he is, and we back him to do the same in recovering this time with the help of our medical department."
