Glasgow Warriors have offered the Old Glory DC hooker, Jack Iscaro, a training contract until the beginning of the new USA club’s debut Major League Rugby season.

The agreement comes off the back of the partnership between Scottish Rugby and Old Glory DC that was announced in March. Iscaro, 21, is a product of the rugby programme at the University of California, Berkeley, led by former USA head coach Jack Clark.

The Cal programme has produced internationals such as former Cardiff Blues and USA Eagles captain Blaine Scully, as well as the most capped USA international of all time Mike MacDonald.

Iscaro played his youth rugby with the Maryland Exiles programme and his high school rugby with Gonzaga College High School, where he helped to earn two National Championships.

The hooker, who is also capable of playing at prop, is a native to the DC area and will train with the Warriors until December before returning to Washington to represent his home club in their debut MLR season in an expanded 12-team competition from February 2020.

Glasgow Warriors’ head of rugby operations, John Manson, who recently visited Old Glory DC on a consultancy basis, said: “Jack coming to Scotstoun to train in our environment is the first example of the partnership between Old Glory DC and Scottish Rugby being utilised from a talent perspective.

“It’s a great opportunity for an impressive young player to learn in a new setting, working closely with our coaches, trainers and playing squad.”

Iscaro said: “This is a great opportunity for me and I’d like to thank the coaches at Old Glory DC and Glasgow Warriors for facilitating this move. I’m really happy to be in Glasgow and I’m looking forward to the next few months with the Warriors.”

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
