Sam Harrison (born 7 April 1990 in Leicester, England) is an English rugby union player who plays as a scrum-half for Leicester Tigers and England U20 squad.
Club career
His first appearance for Leicester Tigers came as a replacement at home against Benetton Treviso in the Heineken Cup.[2]
He was dual-registered with Nottingham for the 2009–10 season, and Harry Ellis's return from injury saw Harrison kept to a bench spot whilst the Leicester Academy team played in the Guinness A League.[3]
