Tom Arscott signs for Yorkshire Carnegie

Yorkshire Carnegie have signed winger Tom Arscott for the remainder of the 2016-17 Championship season.

Arscott made 53 Premiership appearances for the Sharks after joining them in 2013 from London Welsh. He played in the top flight with Welsh in the 2012-13 season and scored the club's first ever Premiership try on their opening day defeat at Leicester.

He made 25 appearances for the Exiles, where he played alongside current Yorkshire Carnegie players Jonah Holmes, Seb Stegmann and Alex Davies.

Arscott left Sale Sharks last month having previously played at London Welsh, Bristol and Plymouth Albion.

He has joined up with his new team mates this week and is set to feature this Friday in the clash with Jersey Reds.
