Background

Tyrer was born in St Helens, Merseyside, England.

St Helens

In November 2006, Steve Tyrer was promoted to train with the St. Helens first team squad

Steve Tyrer is someone in the words of Harlequins stalwart Tony Rea 'who the whole rugby league community have known about for some time.'

Tyrer made a big impact on the first team squad in 2007, making a try scoring home début against Bradford Bulls, his strong running and goal kicking ability cemented his place as one of the games brightest prospects. Having made a significant contribution in Saints early win over Batley in the Challenge Cup, Stephen was given a place in the squad for the first final at the new Wembley, although he did not take part in the action, he did receive a competition winner's medal.

Having played his first full season as number 24, Stephen was given the number 22 jersey for the 2008 Super League season. He found his opportunities limited however in a strong Saints squad.

Widnes Vikings

He spent the final third of the 2008 season on loan at Widnes where he wore the number 3 jersey and scored over 100 points, including two second half tries and several conversions in his début against Salford.

Celtic Crusaders

After Widnes missed out on a place in the 2009 Super League competition, Tyrer parted with the club to pursue his top flight ambitions with Crusaders.

Salford City Reds

This was followed by another season on loan at Salford.

Widnes

In late 2010 Stephen was released from his Saints contract and returned to Widnes where he will hope to win a long term contract before Widnes recently announced return to Super League for the 2012 season.

Halifax

Tyrer did not win a contract at Widnes so he joined Halifax. He was one of a few Widnes players to join Halifax after not winning a Super League contract at Widnes. Tyrer went on to score 2000 points for Fax and sits 2nd in the clubs all time points scoring charts behind hall of famer Ronnie James.
