Ben Spencer
Bath Rugby’s Ben Spencer competed in the 2012 Junior World Championship as a member of the England U20 Men’s squad. Following a season at Cambridge at the beginning of his career, Spencer joined Saracens where he remained for nine years. A call-up to England Senior Men’s 2019 Rugby World Cup squad as injury cover for Willi Heinz saw the scrum half feature in the final of the tournament from the bench. In 2020 Spencer joined Bath Rugby, where his form earned him a spot in Steve Borthwick’s squad ahead for the 2024 Guinness Six Nations. Spencer captained Bath to the Gallagher Premiership title in 2025, their first in 29 years, and was called into the England squad ahead of England XV v France XV.

The scrum half, or number 9, links forwards and backs, taking the ball from the scrum or lineout, and putting pressure on the opposition nine. With a kicking armoury, man management and decision skills, the nine knows when to make breaks or to pass.
