Will Trenholm signs new Gloucester deal until 2029

Gloucesterback-row forward Will Trenholm has signed a contract extension that will keep him at Kingsholm until 2029.

The 25-year-old has been rewarded for his impressive performances since joining the Cherry & Whites from Harlequins in the summer of 2025.

Will Trenholm Commits Future to Gloucester

Trenholm arrived at Gloucester from his boyhood club Harlequins, where he had progressed through the academy, and quickly established himself in George Skivington's squad.

Trenholm credited Gloucester's coaching staff and supporters for helping him settle into his new surroundings.

"I owe a lot to Gloucester Rugby. They took a chance on me, and I try to repay that every time I step onto the field.

"I've grown so much as both a player and a person since coming here.

"Moving away from everything I'd ever known, settling in the West Country, making new friends and being pushed every day by coaches who believe in me and in what this group can achieve has been massive for my development.

"Playing at Kingsholm is pretty special. I savour every moment I get out on that pitch in front of our fans, and I'd like to think that comes across in the way I play."

George Skivington Praises Trenholm's Progress

Gloucester head coach George Skivington welcomed the extension and highlighted the forward's commitment since arriving at Kingsholm.

"Will has been a real success story for us over the past year and a half," Skivington said.

The Gloucester boss praised Trenholm's work ethic and ability to take advantage of opportunities, having initially arrived on the fringes of the squad.

Skivington also highlighted the competition for places in Gloucester's back row as an important factor in driving improvement across the team.

"He's a good bloke with a great energy about him, and he's a big part of the environment we're building here. We have excellent competition in the back row, and that's driving all of those players to keep improving and fight for starting spots, which is really exciting for us."
