Worcester Warriors have announced the signing of tighthead prop Christian Judge ahead of the 2021/22 season.

"After meeting the coaches and hearing their vision and ambitions for the club I'm really excited about making the move to Sixways in the summer,” he told the official website of club.

“It is clear they are building something very positive for the future and it feels like the right time to be joining up. I look forward to being a part of their vision for the club at this exciting time.”

Judge will head to Sixways after being part of Bath Rugby since the start of the 2019/20 season. He started his career with Launceston in 2014 and a year later represented Plymouth Albion in National One.

Having been part of Bedford Blues in 2016, the 28-year-old headed to Cornish Pirates in 2017 and had a loan stint with Saracens during which the club registered a Premiership title in 2019.

Worcester Warriors director of rugby Alan Solomons expressed delight in securing the services of Judge for the next season.

“We are delighted that Chris has decided to join Warriors,” said Warriors Director of Rugby Alan Solomons.

“He is an experienced Premiership tighthead prop, whose game is built on his scrummaging. He will be invaluable to us as we look to take the club forward.

“Chris is also a good team man and will fit in well here at Sixways and we all look forward to his arrival next season.”

Worcester are positioned 11th in the Gallagher Premiership table with just two wins from seven games and will take on Leicester Tigers next on 6th February.
