Bristol sign BUCS duo Carrington and Ramply
Bristol have signed full-back Josh Carrington and lock Will Ramply for the 2025-26 season. Carrington and Ramply both played for the Bears during an exhibition match against Queensland Reds in January and have been playing BUCS (British Universities and Colleges Sport) Super Rugby for Cardiff Met and Nottingham respectively. "The progress and development of our club captain Fitz Harding, as well as other players in the Gallagher Premiership, has shown us the talent that can be found and developed in the BUCS Super Rugby competition," director of rugby Pat Lam said. "A key part of the Bears recruitment strategy is to find the players who have been missed through the conventional academy pathways – we believe there are good opportunities to recruit mature young players who can make the step up. "Josh and Will have enjoyed fantastic seasons in BUCS Super Rugby and impressed us with their performances against Queensland Reds, and they have both earned their opportunities to continue their development as full-time professionals."
