Abigail Burton completed her studies at Hartpury College where she played in the Tyrrells Premier 15s for Gloucester-Hartpury, coached by former England Sevens international Susie Appleby.
Her impressive first season was rewarded as she captained England in the Kharkiv 7s, the final tournament of the 2018-19 campaign and she has featured in all of England’s events in 2019-20 to date. Abi comes from a talented rugby family.
Having captained the North of England U18 sevens to silver in the 2016 School Games, she went on to captain the U18 Hartpury side that won Rosslyn Sevens and came third in the 2017 HGHS Sevens Sanix World Rugby Youth tournament in Japan.
