Timeline

1989

Shaun Ainscough (born 27 November 1989 ) is a former English professional rugby league footballer who last played as a er for the Rochdale Hornets in the Betfred Championship.

Ainscough started his professional career for the Wigan Warriors (Heritage No. 1012) in the Super League, and has also played for the Bradford Bulls.

He now works at CM Health and Fitness personal training when not playing rugby league.

He caused a sensation by scoring sixteen tries in his first ten professional games, becoming the league's leading try scorer at one point.

Ainscough was born in Billinge Higher End, Wigan, England.

Ainscough's first experience of competitive rugby league football came through Wigan St Judes ARLFC.

2006

He remained at the amateur club until 2006, when he gained a scholarship to join the academy of his hometown professional club, Wigan.

His first game for the academy came in a Junior Academy Championship fixture at Hilton Park against Leigh, as a ].

Ainscough marked this appearance by also scoring his first try in a Wigan jersey.

He was rotated into different positions throughout his academy career, playing at centre for a repeat match against Leigh seven weeks later, as well as fullback against Harlequins RL the game after that.

On both occasions, Ainscough scored tries, earning one and two tries in each game respectively.

However, his first competitive hat-trick came playing on the left wing in a play-off game against Widnes.

2007

During his time with the academy in 2007, Ainscough also played two matches at senior level, once against Hull FC, and once against Harlequins RL, scoring a try in the latter fixture.

His energetic style on the wing was noted by the club's coaches, and this continued to impress officials inside the club and out, leading to him earning a place for the England under-17s team during the Australian Institute of Sport's tour of the United Kingdom and France in 2007.

The second test of this series ended with a victory for the England team winning 38–22, thanks in no small part to a hat-trick of tries from Ainscough, and another from Richard Myler, who would also go on to prominence in the Super League with fellow Lancastrians, Salford.

2008

Although he was not yet officially a part of Wigan first team, his debut appearance for the club was in a friendly match against Bradford Bulls in January 2008, wearing jersey number 31.

It was a successful start for the then-eighteen-year-old, scoring two of Wigan's five tries, each of them either side of the half-time break in a match Wigan won 16–28.

The twenty-man teamsheets for two other pre-season friendlies against Warrington, and Widnes in 2008 also included Ainscough as a substitute, but he was never utilised in either game.

The start of 2008 saw Ainscough being promoted from the academy sides to the reserve side, just one level below the first team.

By coincidence, his first appearance and first try for the reserves was away against Leigh, as they had also been for his academy career, although this time, he played at fullback, not wing.

The rest of the year saw five official appearances for Ainscough, scoring five tries including another hat-trick, this time against Wakefield Trinity.

He also made four appearances in the Gillette Academy championship, scoring five tries.

His efforts in the reserves earned him a place in a pre-season friendly during the Christmas season of 2008 against Warrington, in which Ainscough picked up a try following a pass from Cameron Phelps.

In a pre-match interview before the Magic Weekend in Round 12, St Helens coach Mick Potter stated he was a target for high kicks, with the belief that Ainscough's opposite winger Ade Gardner, the leading try scorer in 2008's Super League XIII, would put him under pressure.

It was a game Ainscough did not eventually play in.

2009

It was his last match before being selected for the first team in 2009.

In the whole of his career prior to starting first-class rugby league for Wigan, he appeared in 32 academy and reserve fixtures, of which 24 were won, with Ainscough personally scoring 28 tries.

Ainscough was promoted into Wigan first team on 22 January after receiving the number 28 jersey, which previously belonged to fellow academy product Sam Tomkins the season before.

His first Super League game was in a 22–28 home defeat by Castleford, a match in which he scored his first Super League try which looked to have given Wigan a chance of winning the match until Castleford scored another try through Michael Shenton.

However, Ainscough made a lasting contribution in his next appearance against Harlequins RL at the Twickenham Stoop, in which he and Amos Roberts scored late in the match to give Wigan their first home win of the 2009 Super League season.

Ainscough then featured in the Wigan team that defeated Bradford Bulls by 34 points at the JJB Stadium, before scoring a try on the way to a defeat at Leeds the week after.

An away victory over Salford City Reds in which he personally contributed two tries was to be the last win in the Super League for some weeks for Ainscough.

Although a home defeat by Huddersfield Giants was followed by a hat-trick performance at Barrow Raiders in the 2009 Challenge Cup (a game in which Wigan were pushed hard by Barrow), two further defeats at home to St. Helens, and away to the Catalans Dragons in Perpignan forced Wigan coach Brian Noble into changing the squad around, and even though Ainscough had contributed the only two tries of the night for Wigan against St Helens, he found himself out of the new squad, with Noble favouring Pat Richards, and Amos Roberts on the wings with George Carmont, and new Warrington-signing Martin Gleeson at centre, and Cameron Phelps at fullback for Wigan's next game against Crusaders.

The brief hiatus broke the very next game, however, as Ainscough (who had been omitted from the initial nineteen-man teamsheet) was called up late to replace a tonsillitis-stricken George Carmont.

He personally ran-in four tries to secure a 26–40 victory against Wakefield Trinity at Belle Vue, to the praise of commentators in the British mainstream national newspapers, and drawing comparisons to the Wigan legend, Martin Offiah.

The match brought his Super League tally of tries for the season to thirteen, the most of anyone in the league by that point.

Despite this, Ainscough has only appeared in two more matches to date – an away defeat by Warrington Wolves, and another away defeat by Celtic Crusaders.

His capabilities in defence drew criticism from some coaches, not least his own coach at Wigan.

Following the game at Wakefield Trinity, Noble stated that, "there are other parts of his game he needs to improve".

After losing his place, Ainscough continued to play in the reserves, although in August it was confirmed he had suffered scaphoid wrist damage, and as a result would possibly be out for the rest of the 2009 season.
