Will Porter pens new Quins deal

Scrum-half Will Porter has committed his future to Harlequins, signing a new deal to remain at The Stoop.

The 27-year-old has started the campaign in strong form featuring on seven occasions and scoring two memorable tries in the Gallagher PREM: one against Bath in the league opener and another against Saracens on derby day.

Porter joined Harlequins from Bristol Bears ahead of the 2023/24 season and has since made 66 appearances for the Club, scoring 18 tries in the quarters.

The former Wasps Academy product has previously represented England at age-grade level as well as England ‘A’ in 2024 and 2025.

“It’s feels amazing. I’m really excited to commit a few more years to the Club,” said Porter.

“We’re building a great culture within the group and it’s a great environment to train and play in, and I think playing at The Stoop in front of our amazing fans is a big benefit.

“I’ve enjoyed my rugby the most since playing at Harlequins. As a player, I feel as though I have developed my running game to be more of a threat, and my game management side and that’s down to the coaches and players I am getting to work with day-in, day-out.”

Head Coach, Jason Gilmore said: “Ports has been in good form for us this season. The scrum-half role is fundamental to our game model, and you can see through his performances this season he has a great understanding of what we’re wanting to implement through what he is executing.

“He plays an important role in our strong scrum-half group and wider squad. When he’s on the pitch, he’s a real game driver for us with his delivery from the base as well as knowing when to threaten round the fringes of the breakdown, and when to move us up the field through his kicking game.

“We’re delighted Will is going to remain at the Club for seasons to come.”
