The Western Force have added Regin Pratt, Johan Becroft, Migael De Lange and Evan Hooper to the Club’s 2026 Academy squad.

All four played a part of the Force’s Super Rugby Next Gen campaign in February and have remained with the program since.

Pratt is a Queensland-raised tighthead prop who plays for Cottesloe, alongside Seagulls winger Becroft, who scored in the Force’s 32-19 Next Gen win over the Brumbies.

Nedlands full-back De Lange hails from South Africa having been part of the Bulls U20 set-up last year. He scored two tries against the Queensland Reds.

Evan Hooper is a midfielder who linked up with the Force earlier this year through the Club’s RugbySA links.
