Harlequins have signed Great Britain Rugby Sevens winger Grace Crompton from Bristol Bears.

The 22-year-old 鈥 who was previously involved with Quins as a youth player 鈥 is the youngest member of Team GB's squad for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

She featured at the 2022 Rugby World Cup Sevens for England while still an undergraduate student.

"I'm super excited and honoured to become a Quin," she said.

"They helped me develop massively within the centre of excellence, so it's amazing to be back.

"It's an iconic shirt, so I can't wait to put it on for the first time," she added.

Crompton will join her fellow Paris-bound Olympians Heather Cowell and Lauren Torley at Harlequins, after the pair agreed new contracts this week.
