Former Worcester Warriors backrower Noah Heward has been signed by the Bristol Bears on a 2-year contract.
Heward joined the Warriors Academy in 2019 and made it his senior debut in the European Challenge Cup that year.
The 22-year-old can play as either a full-back or winger in the back three. He was featured 23 times and scored six tries.
He has represented England at both the under-18- and under-20 levels.
Heward is the second ex Worcester player to move to Bristol after the demise of the club, With forward Joe Batley signing earlier in October.
“Noah’s a talented player who can be equally at home as a full-back or on a wing,” said Pat Lam, Bristol director for rugby.
“He is a determined young man, with a great attitude. We’re happy to offer this opportunity to him.”
