Steve Snape

Steve Snape (born September 17, 1963 in Manchester, Lancashire) is an English former rugby league footballer. "Snapey" played for Swinton RLFC during the 1980s and early 1990s, winning the old second division of English rugby league football with the club in 1985 and 1987, and finishing runners-up in 1989, earning promotion to the former English first division. He played in the left centre and stand-off positions, and occasionally provided cover at right centre. His career with Swinton Lions, which started in the early 1980s, was brought to a somewhat premature end in the 1992/1993 season following disagreements with the club's board, the sale of Station Road and the club's subsequent move to Gigg Lane in Bury.
