Tom Hitchcock joins London Irish

London Irish has confirmed the signing of Exeter University centre Tom Hitchcock.


Playing his part in the BUCS Super Rugby side’s second-place finish this season with four tries, Hitchcock will join Declan Kidney’s men ahead of the forthcoming pre-season schedule.

The combative midfielder opened the scoring in the 2021/22 BUCS Super Rugby National Championship final as the West Country outfit triumphed over Durham University for their first win in six years, finishing 14-13 at Sixways Stadium.

A stellar season for Hitchcock also saw him make his first appearance for Exeter Chiefs in the Premiership Rugby Cup, as Rob Baxter’s men emerged 31-29 victors.

Hitchcock emerged from Felsted School in Essex and was integrated on the pathway into the Saracens Academy, playing for the under-18s side before moving to Devon for his university studies.
