Harlequins Women are delighted to announce the signing of Australian international back Bella McKenzie from New South Wales Waratahs.
McKenzie will head to South West London after the World Cup later this season as Australia are set take on neighbours New Zealand, Wales and Scotland in the pool stages
The 23-year-old can play all across the backline and signed for Matutu ahead of the inaugural season of Super Rugby Aupiki in 2022.
The dynamic back was also named in Australia’s squad for the 2022 Pacific Four Series in New Zealand during the summer.
After signing with the Club, McKenzie said: “I’m really excited about the opportunity to move over to London and play with Quins.
“Harlequins have such a rich history and it’s an honour to be a part of the program. I’m really looking forward to meeting all the girls, staff and hopefully making my debut in the Allianz Premier 15s in a successful season with the girls.
Head Coach Amy Turner added: “We’re delighted to have Bella sign with Harlequins ahead of the 2022/23 campaign. She is a player who is capable of playing in numerous positions across the backline. Bella is highly rated in Australia and we’re looking forward to seeing her run out in Quins colours very soon.”
With thanks to Harlequins
