Bristol Bears have signed versatile back-row forward Ethan Staddon from West Country rivals Bath for the 2026-27 season.
Staddon has made 36 appearances for Bath, scoring five tries, and was a key part of the side that won the Prem Rugby Cup last season as they went on to win a trio of trophies.
The 23-year-old, who typically plays at flanker but can also feature in the second row, made his debut in December 2020 having come through Bath’s academy.
He has also represented England at under-20 level and is the first player the Bears have confirmed they have brought in for next season.
“Ethan is a player we’ve admired for a long time,” said Bristol director of rugby Pat Lam., external
“He has tremendous potential and genuine versatility, with the ability to make an impact right across the back row – something that’s particularly valuable within our smaller squad.
“He’s driven, coachable and fully committed to improving and performing at the highest level.”
