The 21-year-old, who is in his third year of a business degree at the university, has signed a senior academy contract at the Rec.

The fullback made his debut for GB 7s at the Dubai SVNS in December, and has since played in every leg of the HSBC SVNS series barring the recent tournament in Hong Kong, earning a silver medal along the way at the Los Angeles SVNS.

“I’m really happy and proud to sign for Bath Rugby,” said Emens after signing.

“I didn’t really expect this opportunity. I joined the University for the academic side of things, it was the best course for me, but I obviously also knew that rugby was a big part of life here and I knew the links to Bath Rugby were there too.

“The last couple of months have been a bit of a whirlwind – signing for Bath and playing for GB7s has all come at once – but it’s good fun and I’m really glad I have these opportunities. They are what I’ve wanted and worked for.”

Bath head of rugby Johann van Graan added: “I am really happy to welcome Austin on our journey. I have seen some real talent in Austin’s play and I’m looking forward to seeing how he develops over the next number of years.”

Head of rugby at the University of Bath Aaron James said: “We are absolutely delighted for Austin, he has worked so hard for this opportunity and it is thoroughly deserved.

“His self-drive, both on and off the pitch, skill development, game understanding and consistent performances through 7s and 15s has earnt Austin his contract and it’s another proud moment to see such a good person get his just reward.

“Austin joins Tom, who we have developed through the BUCS Super Rugby programme to progress to professional contracts, and this is testament to the University of Bath and Bath Rugby Academy partnership. One of the goals of the University’s Performance Rugby Programme is to develop players who go onto professional rugby and our partners at Bath Rugby in particular.”

CRYPTO RECOVERY COMPAMIES HIRE DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION

On 05/01/2025, I found myself dealing with a company called Bitcoin Mining Pool, and it turned out to be one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I initially invested 20,000 Euros with them, hoping to make some returns from their mining operations. At first, everything seemed fine, and I was optimistic about my investment. However, things quickly took a sharp turn for the worse.Without any warning, my account was suddenly locked. I couldn’t understand why, as there were no prior alerts or explanations given. I contacted their customer support multiple times, but all I got were vague answers or, in many cases, no response at all. It became clear that they had no intention of helping. After several frustrating days, I attempted to withdraw my funds, only to be hit with an unexpected demand: they insisted that I pay an additional ransom before I could access my own money. No legitimate reason was provided for this, and there was no way to resolve the situation. It felt like I was being scammed outright, and I had no control over the situation.At that point, I realized that Bitcoin Mining Pool was most likely a fraudulent operation. I reported them to the proper authorities, but I still had no idea how to recover my funds. That’s when I came across DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION during my research on how to recover stolen money. I saw numerous positive reviews from people who had been in similar situations with forex brokers and had successfully regained their funds with the help of DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION. Desperate for a solution, I reached out to them.To my amazement, within just 72 hours of contacting DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION, I had all of my money refunded both the original 20,000 Euros and the profits I was rightfully owed. The process was quick, efficient, and professional. I couldn’t believe how fast and effective their service was.I will never trust Bitcoin Mining Pool or any similar company again. It’s clear they were out to scam me, and it’s a shame that such companies exist in the industry. If you’ve been scammed by a forex broker or are dealing with withdrawal issues, I highly recommend contacting DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION. This company truly knows what it’s doing, and I am extremely grateful for their help in recovering my funds.
