Wales centre Ashley Beck pens new deal with Worcester Warriors

Worcester Warriors have announced that Wales centre Ashley Beck has penned a new deal with the Gallagher Premiership.

The 32-year-old made his professional rugby debut with Ospreys in 2007 after graduating through their academy and headed to Sixways ahead of the 2018/19 season.

Beck has played for the Warriors 59 times despite his first season was cut short by an ankle injury and has scored eight tries. He also had played for Wales in seven Tests between 2012 and 2013.

“It’s a really good club, it has a lovely family feel about it, everyone is close off the field so it was a no-brainer to stay here,” Beck said.

“We really feel really at home here. My daughter was born up here, we are expecting again and it’s the first house we have had together.

“So, it’s a special place. We have also built some really good friendships and winning the Premiership Rugby Cup shows the direction that the club is going in. We have some really exciting youngsters coming through, so it’s a really good place to be.

“To lift a trophy with this group of boys was very special. I have only won one other trophy and that was the Pro-14 ten years ago, so they don’t come by too often."

Worcester Warriors are languishing at the bottom of the Gallagher Premiership table after managing five wins from 23 games.
