Trailfinders sign 24-year-old back rower Harry Taylor

Ealing Trailfinders are delighted to announce the signing of New Zealand-born back rower Harry Taylor. 

Taylor joins the club from Otago Rugby Club, New Zealand. Taylor was a crucial player in Otago reaching the National Provincial Championship Final 2025.

Taylor can play both openside and blindside flanker, adding further depth to Trailfinders’ back row. This will be his first time playing northern hemisphere rugby.

On signing for the Club, Taylor said:

“I’m feeling excited and grateful to join the Ealing Trailfinders family. All the players and management have been very welcoming and I’m looking forward to making a positive impact on the club.”

Director of Rugby, Ben Ward, said: 

“Harry has been a great addition to the squad. His ability to move between openside and blindside will help us cover different positions in the back row as the season continues to unfold.

“His experience from the NPC will be very valuable in our Champ campaign. With his background and age, he is a player that I’m excited to see develop and progress with Ealing Trailfinders.”
