HARLEQUINS second row George Hammond, 22, has signed a contract extension with the club, becoming the 17th player, and 12th from the academy, to commit to a new deal this year.
The former England U20 star, who has played 36 times for the club, said: “The opportunity to play for your boyhood club is always special, so to be able to re-sign here with Harlequins is fantastic.”
