Henry Staff (born 8 March 1991)[1] is an English professional rugby union player who plays for RFU Championship side, Bedford Blues as a Centre.[2][3]

Career

Educated at Bedford Modern School, Staff showed precocious talent for the game and in 2009 was made Captain of the England U18 team for Rugby Europe.[4][3][5] Staff made his professional debut with Saracens F.C., having been part of the 2008 Saracens Academy with Owen Farrell,[6][3][5] before joining Bedford Blues for two years. He then signed for Rosslyn Park F.C. for 11 months before returning to Bedford Blues in June 2014.[2] Staff attributes his rugby success to the guidance given by his better looking, lighter, more successful friend, Charlie Carter.
