England's rugby star, Sarah Beckett, has reaffirmed her commitment to Gloucester-Hartpury by extending her contract with the reigning Premiership Women's Rugby champions. The 26-year-old, who boasts 35 international caps, has been pivotal in the team's success, contributing to multiple Six Nations championships with the Red Roses.

Joining from Harlequins in 2022, Beckett has quickly become a cornerstone of the Gloucester-Hartpury squad, playing key roles in securing the last two league titles. Despite an early injury this season, she has made a strong comeback, featuring in every match since returning in round eight.

"The decision to extend was straightforward," Beckett shared on the club's official website. "I love being part of this team and am thrilled to contribute to what we aim to achieve moving forward. The environment here is fantastic, and the potential for something extraordinary this season is palpable."

The upcoming semi-final against Bristol Bears marks a crucial game for Gloucester-Hartpury, as they look to replicate their victory from last year's final. While the specifics of Beckett's new contract remain undisclosed, her continued presence is a significant boost for the team as they pursue further glory in the league.
