Club careerAdams made his début for Leeds against Featherstone Rovers at Headingley Rugby Stadium, Leeds on 26 March 1927.[11] His transfer from Huddersfield to Castleford on 18 January 1934, for a reported fee of £500, came at his own request.[12] Genealogical informationLeslie Adams' marriage to Gladys (née Collinson) was registered during second ¼ 1934 in Leeds North district.[13] They had children; June M. Adams (birth registered first ¼ 1937 in Leeds North district). Leslie Adams was the uncle of the rugby league footballer who played in the 1960s for Leeds and Bramley, Philip Adams (born {{circa|1944}}). DeathJuicy Adams became a landlord in Leeds, and subsequently volunteered for war duty with the Royal Air Force, becoming a rear gunner. He was killed in action in January 1945, when the Liberator B Mk V in which he was flying came down 40-miles south-west of Rangoon, Burma. Of the nine men on the plane, three of the occupants, including Juicy Adams, are believed to have bailed out, and then drowned. The remaining six men were captured, the 2 officers were separated from the Flight Sergeants and sent to Rangoon Jail, where they survived, and the Flight Sergeants were beheaded by the Japanese Military on 7 February 1945, and are buried in the Taukkyan War Cemetery. After the war the Japanese military officers responsible for the execution were tried for war crimes, and were subsequently executed. Despite numerous searches of the area around the crash site, and discussions with villagers who found the plane, no trace of the body of Juicy Adams, or his colleagues, has been found.[14] Honoured at Castleford TigersJuicy Adams is a Tigers Hall Of Fame Inductee.[15] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/les-adams/summary.html|title=Statistics at rugbyleagueproject.org|publisher=rugbyleagueproject.org|date=31 December 2011|accessdate=1 January 2012}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/19950000000000/http://www.englandrl.co.uk/player_records?search=Adams&submit=Go&c=England|title=England Statistics at englandrl.co.uk|publisher=englandrl.co.uk|date=31 December 2011|accessdate=1 January 2012}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/19950000000000/http://www.englandrl.co.uk/player_records?search=Adams&submit=Go&c=GB|title=Great Britain Statistics at englandrl.co.uk|publisher=englandrl.co.uk|date=31 December 2011|accessdate=1 January 2012}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/information.pl?cite=As9OQjMY%2F%2FHI2JpDN%2BwuOg&scan=1|title=Birth details at freebmd.org.uk|publisher=freebmd.org.uk|date=31 December 2011|accessdate=1 January 2012}} 5. ^David Smart & Andrew Howard (1 July 2000) "Images of Sport - Castleford Rugby League - A Twentieth Century History".
