Natasha Hunt

Natasha Hunt’s rugby career began at the age of 17 when her PE teacher suggested that she tried the sport. Her England dream became reality in the space of a few months as she progressed from the West Midlands trials, the high-performance academy and trials for the England U20 squad. She went on to start the 2014 Women's Rugby World Cup final, earning her 29th cap and victory over Canada. Natasha then represented Team GB in sevens at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Returning to XVs, she was awarded with a full-time professional EPS contract in 2016 and was part of the squad that reached a second successive World Cup final in 2017. She represented England Sevens at the 2018 Rugby World Cup Sevens as well as winning a bronze medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games, before returning to XVs with a full-time contract in January 2019 and joining Gloucester Hartpury. Success continued in 2019 when she played in every game of the Women’s Six Nations as England won the Grand Slam. She earned her 50th cap in the November test against Italy. Hunt featured in the 2023 TikTok Women's Six Nations Championship before retaining her spot in the Red Roses squad for the inaugural WXV tournament in New Zealand later that year. She was recently named in John Mitchell’s squad for the 2024 Guinness Women’s Six Nations.

What is a Scrum Half?

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.
