Rory Hutchinson is a rugby union player currently playing with Northampton Saints.[1]

Playing predominantly at centre as he progresses with his career, Hutchinson began his rugby at National League 2 South side Shelford RFC, but was soon noticed by the Northampton club and joined their academy ranks.[2]

After appearing for the Saints' second side, the Wanderers, on numerous occasions and being a part of the club's Singha Sevens side, Hutchinson made he senior debut for the club on 31st January 2015, aged just 19 as Saints played local rivals Leicester Tigers.[3]

The centre then had to wait a whole two seasons for his next senior appearance in a Saints shirt, only making his Aviva Premiership debut against Exeter Chiefs in September of 2016. Hutchinson managed to score a point in Saints' tight one point victory over their guest.[4]

Hutchinson has all represented Scotland at age-group level. After having impresses at under-18 level, the centre was called up into the under-20 team.[5] Playing in the IRB Junior World Cup in New Zealand to start, Hutchinson went on fall just one appearance short of the all-time record for number of appearance for the Scotland U20 side, playing 20 times for the country at that level.
