Ben Morris signs new deal with Wasps
- 1979
Wasps have announced that back rower Ben Morris has extended his contract with the club.
The 29-year-old is approaching a half-century of Wasps appearances since joining from Nottingham Rugby ahead of the 2018/19 season.
The 6ft 3in forward, who has also operated in the second row on occasions, began his rugby with Leeds Carnegie while still at school.
He was then picked up by Newcastle Falcons’ Academy while studying at Newcastle University and spent a couple of seasons on loan at National League Blaydon during which he won England Counties honours.
Morris spent the 2014/15 season on loan at Championship side Rotherham Titans on a dual registration from Newcastle, before moving south to join Nottingham in 2015 where he became a regular member of the Green and Whites back row alongside current Wasps coach Matt Everard.
He appeared 14 times in Black and Gold during the 2020/21 season, taking his total tally to 43.
