England vice-captain Megan Jones has signed for Trailfinders Women for the 2025-26 Premiership Women’s Rugby season from Leicester Tigers.<\/p>\n
Jones, who can play as centre and fly-half, has spent the past two seasons with the Tigers and has also previously represented Bristol Bears and Wasps.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old has been capped 24 times by the Red Roses and has scored three tries in three games during the Six Nations as England close in on another Grand Slam.<\/p>\n
Jones says she is looking forward to “challenging” herself in a new environment at the Ealing-based club.<\/p>\n
“The club has that community feel which I love, and there’s a passion and ambition to push on that really excites me. I really like the way the team play, and I can’t wait to join up with the group and get going,” she said.<\/p>\n
Cardiff-born Jones has also represented Great Britain in rugby sevens, winning bronze at the 2018 Commonwealth Games and competing at the Tokyo and Paris Olympics.<\/p>\n
She made her England debut in 2015 as an 18-year-old, and before the start of this spring’s Six Nations was named vice-captain of the squad by head coach John Mitchell.<\/p>\n
“Megan is a world-class player with a remarkable rugby pedigree,” said Trailfinders head coach Barney Maddison.<\/p>\n
“Her experience both at the domestic and international levels will bring invaluable leadership to our squad.”<\/p>\n
Trailfinders finished seventh in the PWR table last season.<\/p>\n
