Born and bred in the city, the 27-year-old has made over 120 appearances for the Club since making his first-team debut against Cardiff Blues in 2010. A graduate of the Academy, Cook brings a vast amount of experience to the number nine jersey.

Cook said: “It’s massively exciting (to have re-signed). It’s not common for players stay to at a club for this long – I always play with my heart on my sleeve and put everything into it. I dreamt of playing on the Rec as a kid and to have over 120 caps is really special.”

Director of Rugby, Todd Blackadder, added: “Cookie is a real competitor and someone who has given his all to Bath Rugby over the last decade. He’s a Bath boy through and through and I know how much it means to him to play for this Club. There is a great deal of competition at scrum-half and I know like the others in the position, he will continue to fight for that starting shirt.”
