Sam Williams (OS 23) Named in England U20 Squad for World Rugby Championship 2025

Old Stamfordian Sam Williams (OS 23) has been named in the England squad for the World Rugby U20 Championship 2025. The dynamic back rower is the sole Leicester Tigers player selected in the 30-man squad heading to Italy for this year’s tournament, which runs from 29 June to 19 July.

Sam made his senior debut for Leicester Tigers in November 2024 and has since made three appearances for the first team. He also featured in England’s recent warm-up match against Georgia, further underlining his potential on the international stage.

A former member of the England U20 Men's Elite Performance Squad, Sam has consistently impressed with his skill, determination and work ethic. His selection for the World Championship reflects the significant progress he has made since leaving Stamford School.

Everyone at Stamford is immensely proud of Sam’s continued success. We look forward to supporting him as he represents his country among the most talented young players in the game.
