Carnduff learns the Leicester way

The humble but hard hitting back row has made four appearances for Leicester this season after making his debut for the club in the 2021/22 season at just 17 in the Premiership Cup.

Carnduff has won 11 U20 caps and follows in the footsteps of his club teammates Lewis Chessum, Emeka Ilione and Jack van Poortvliet in leading the U20s into Six Nations battle.

Harlequins prop Fin Baxter (2022) is the only non-Leicester player to captain the side in the past five years and Carnduff enjoyed picking the brains of his fellow leaders at Tigers ahead of England’s tournament opener against Italy last Friday.

Carnduff told The Rugby Paper: “It’s an honour to say that I have this opportunity and to be able to do it with the group of lads we’ve got makes it even more special.
