Gloucester Academy Success for Ben

We are incredibly proud to celebrate the achievements of Ben, who continues to excel as part of the prestigious Gloucester Rugby Academy. This professional development pathway supports the growth of talented young players, allowing them to represent Premiership clubs while still playing for their local teams.

Throughout the season, Ben has been selected for every Gloucester Academy fixture—an impressive accomplishment in itself. His schedule has included high‑profile matches against strong Premiership rivals such as Bath and Bristol Bears, giving him valuable experience at an elite level of the game.

Last weekend brought an especially memorable moment, as Ben was chosen to start at Fullback for Gloucester in their fixture against Northampton Saints. The match took place at the historic Rugby School—the very birthplace of the sport—adding significance to an already exciting opportunity. Gloucester secured a 17–22 victory, maintaining their unbeaten run and preserving their 100% record for the season.

Ben’s dedication, hard work, and outstanding performances continue to impress, and we look forward to following his ongoing journey within the Gloucester Rugby Academy.

Well done, Ben—an inspiring achievement!
