Back row Geordie Irvine joined Northampton Saints’ Senior Academy ahead of the 2021/22 season.
The Oundle School graduate was scouted by Saints at Under-16 level and would go on to captain the side at the prestigious Wellington Festival before leading the Under-18s in his final season in the Junior Academy.
Irvine has also already experienced international honours, with the back rower named in England’s under-17 training squad in 2020 before representing England at under-18 level.
And the back row would make his first senior appearances for Saints in 2021/22, debuting against London Irish in the Premiership Rugby Cup that term.
