Back-row
A product of Poppy Leitch’s U23s pathway programme, Izzy Newnes-Smith was put forward for a transition contract before the start of the 2026/27 season.
The back-rower followed her father and her siblings onto the rugby pitch and played for Guildford RFC before heading to the University of Exeter to further her rugby development.
Newnes-Smith’s best moment in her career so far was winning the BUCS Sevens at the end of last season for the University.
She made her Chiefs debut against Leicester Tigers Women in the JAECOO Next Gen Cup.
