Tom Dunn: Bath hooker signs new deal until 2026

Bath hooker Tom Dunn has signed a contract until 2026, taking him into a 14th season at the club.

The 32-year-old has played 233 times for Bath so far since his debut in 2012, two years after he joined the club’s academy as a teenager.

Dunn, who has also been capped four times by England, has started 11 out of 12 Premiership matches for the league leaders this campaign.

“I’m so pleased to have the opportunity to renew with this club. I’m proud to be born in Bath and it means the world to me to be a one-club man,” Dunn said.

“I’ve never hidden my aspirations of winning silverware with this team, and I truly believe we have the right people here to do that.

“I remain as determined as ever to give something back to the club and to all our fans who have given me so much.”

Dunn is one of a number of current players to renew their contracts ahead of the 2025-26 season, with England centre Ollie Lawrence, number eight Jaco Coetzee, second row Quin Roux and prop Beno Obano also agreeing new terms in recent weeks.

Head of rugby Johann van Graan said Dunn is a “big part” of what the club is about.

“His experience and influence are very important to us as a group, specifically in the set piece,” Van Graan added.
