Maidstone-born scrum-half Alex Mitchell signed on with Saints Academy in 2015 after being a part of the academy set-up at Sale Sharks. 

Debuting in Black, Green and Gold against Saracens in 2017 after featuring for Wanderers, Mitchell would make nine appearances in his fledgling season – helping Wanderers claim back-to-back Premiership Rugby Shield titles in 2017 and 2018 along the way. 

But the No.9’s breakthrough season came in 2018/19, as he helped Saints reach the knock-out stages of every senior competition, including them claiming the Premiership Rugby Cup title as they downed Saracens on home soil.

Mitchell – who has previously represented England at Under-16, Under-17, Under-18 and Under-20 level – was rewarded for his performances with a call-up to the England senior squad and he featured in an uncapped match against Barbarians. 

The 2021/22 season was a particularly memorable one for Mitchell, who would make his first full international appearance in the Autumn Nations Series, scoring a debut try against Tonga at Twickenham Stadium.  

That formed part of a campaign in which he scored 12 tries in 28 appearances, which all came from the start, with his superb form winning him both the Club’s Players’ and Supporters’ Player of the Season awards.
