Harry Randall
Scrum half Harry Randall has thrived under Pat Lam at Bristol Bears developing into an intelligent and exciting number nine. Born in Slough, Randall moved to Wales aged four and represented the country up until U18 level, but switched allegiance to England when he moved to Hartpury College for his studies. He has since played for England U18s and U20s, and was part of the squad that won the 2016 World Rugby U20 Championship in Manchester. Randall was picked up by Gloucester Rugby while he was playing for Hartpury in the Greene King IPA Championship but switched to Bristol Bears in 2018. In the 2020 Challenge Cup final he scored after 15 seconds for Bristol against Toulon, the fastest ever try in European rugby. He received his first senior England call-up in January 2021 ahead of the Guinness Six Nations and was recently named in Steve Borthwick's squad for the 2025 Six Nations.

The scrum half, or number 9, links forwards and backs, taking the ball from the scrum or lineout, and putting pressure on the opposition nine. With a kicking armoury, man management and decision skills, the nine knows when to make breaks or to pass.
