Fin Smith
Fin Smith began playing rugby aged four at Shipston on Stour RFC. Rugby runs in the family as his grandad was capped for Scotland and went on the 1955 Lions tour. Smith featured for England at U20 level, playing a key role in their 2021 Grand Slam Six Nations campaign. His performances for Premiership side Northampton Saints earned him a first call up to the Senior Men’s squad for the 2023 Guinness Six Nations before also earning a spot in 2024, when he made his senior debut. Fin helped Northampton win their first Premiership title in ten years before playing in every game of the 2024 Summer Series tour of Japan and New Zealand.

The fly half, or 10, is tactically aware, confident under pressure and vocal. The first receiver of the ball from the scrum half, they are often the key figure in organising a team’s attack and defence - quick decision making and outstanding handling and kicking skills are essential.
