Kildunne was named the game’s best female player by World Rugby in November.

“We’re thrilled Ellie has renewed with the club, she’s central to how we want to play the game and encapsulates exactly what it means to play the Quins way,” head coach Ross Chisholm told the club’s website., external

“She’s really stepped up as a leader in this group over this season. To see her working alongside the young English talent we’ve got coming through is really exciting for what the future holds for this team.”

Harlequins have not confirmed the length of the contract.
