Centre agrees one-year contract

Wasps have signed centre Alex Cheesman on a one-year contract. The 22-year-old has joined the Premiership club after completing his degree at Oxford University. Cheesman initially came through the Wasps Academy system and played for them at under 18, Academy and A team level before beginning his studies. He played in three Varsity finals for Oxford at Twickenham whilst also continuing to represent Wasps. Academy manager Rob Smith told the club's website: "With the Academy, only the players that reach the highest levels gain public recognition and this is hopefully only the tip of the iceberg for Alex." Cheesman said: "My goal has always been to play Premiership rugby and to be back at Wasps doing so is an honour."
