- 1509
Warriors winger Dean Hammond has committed his future to the Club by signing a new contract to remain at Sixways.
English-qualified Hammond, who first arrived at Sixways from Western Province as part of the Academy in September 2013, has gone on to make 62 appearances, crossing the whitewash on 25 occasions.
“Dean is a tremendous athlete with raw pace and power," commented Warriors Director of Rugby Alan Solomons.
“He has shown how lethal he is at finishing over the past few seasons and with him, Bryce Heem, Josh Adams, Perry Humphreys and Tom Howe vying for places on the wings, we have fantastic strength in depth.”
The explosive winger was handed his Warriors debut in his first month at the Club, coming on as a replacement at Wasps before making 15 appearances in his maiden season at Sixways.
He then played a significant part in Warriors' British & Irish Cup triumph in 2014/15, scoring in the final, while also bagging a try in an impressive Championship semi-final, as Warriors went on to secure promotion back to the Aviva Premiership at the first time of asking.
