Leicester Tigers have announced that New Zealand international full-back Scott Hamilton will join the club on a two-year deal in November from Canterbury.
Hamilton, 28, says he is delighted with the move and in particular the chance to link up with former team-mate Aaron Mauger.
He commented, “It’s great to have Aaron over there. He’s captain there now and has a big say in the club, which has enjoyed some success, so I’m looking forward to contributing to their cause.”
