Biography

Nathan started his rugby career at the tender age of 6 whilst at the Chorister School. His passion for the game quickly developed and he came to City as an U9, eager to start playing contact ! A real passion for the game developed and as well as playing through the ranks of our Mini and Junior squads, Nathan also played 1st XV rugby for Durham School and Durham County U17s. His most rugby memorable moment came during this time, playing in the winning team which beat Newcastle's RGS 16-15 at Kingston Park in 2015.

Known as Beaver to his team-mates, Nathan played his first year of Senior rugby for Horden and Peterlee RFC but soon returned to City, and quickly became a regular in our 1st XV, usually playing out on the wing. Inspired by the power and passion of his rugby hero Brian O'Driscoll, Nathan is a complete force of nature himself!

Former City Cherrypickers Mark Berriman, Peter Davies, Keith Ballantyne and Richard Sedgewick are proud to sponsor Nathan for the 2019/20 season.
