Swift joins Giants on three-year deal

Huddersfield Giants have announced the signing of prolific winger Adam Swift from Hull FC on a three-year deal for the 2024 Betfred Super League season.

Swift is a product of the St Helens youth system, where he spent seven years at the club, before joining Hull FC in 2020.

He has 130 tries to his name over a 10-year career in the top flight, as well as crossing 19 times in the 2023 Super League season, including a number of eye catching breakaway tries.

The flying winger will add considerable pace to the Giants backline, bringing speed and try scoring pedigree in a major coup for Ian Watson's men.

After scoring 120 tries in 173 Super League appearances, Swift will be looking to continue his fine form in the Claret and Gold for 2024.

Adam, who caught up with the Giants during the week discussed how excited he is to get going next year and his goals and targets for the next three years at the John Smith's Stadium.

"I'm buzzing to sign for the Giants, it's a great club and I cannot wait to get started here, I hope I can replicate the great personal season I had in 2023, to get my future sorted this early for the next three years is great.

"After speaking with Watto [Ian Watson], my mind was made up, the attention to detail and how welcome he made me feel at the club, I'm looking forward to joining the group.

"I crossed for 19 tries in Super League, and I'm looking to replicate this form in 2024 and help the Giants back up the table."

Ian Watson, Head Coach also commented on the acquisition of Adam: "He is a player who is 100% committed and always gives his all for the team. He's a player that people want to play with because of the hard work that he does. 

"I think he will be an essential signing for us, and one thing that you can't teach that Adam has is absolute pace. Obviously it's an area that we have identified that we need more of and Adam is very well known for that quality. 

"His edge defence is very good, his scramble defence is excellent and obviously attacking wise his try scoring record speaks for itself, so with everything that he can offer we cannot wait to have him involved in the squad."
