Bath secure the services of Six Nations squad player Billy Sela

Bath boss Johann van Graan continues to use the PREM Rugby Cup block to work through his recruitment process, with prop Billy Sela the latest player to sign a new deal at the club.

Twenty-four hours after his good mate, hooker Kepu Tuipulotu, re-signed with the Blue, Black and White, Sela has committed his future to the West Country club until 2028.

Others to have re-signed since the Gallagher PREM took a break at the end of last month include Tom de Glanville, Tom Carr-Smith and Quinn Roux.

Former Academy player Sela has gone on to earn his first Champions Cup start, and was recently called into the England international squad for the 2026 Six Nations campaign, although he has yet to win his first cap.

The prop, who hails from a proud Fijian and Army heritage, began his Bath Rugby career after joining Royal Wootton Bassett RFC and Beechen Cliff School.

“Bath is home for me. From playing in the Academy to playing with the senior team, I’ve always seen it as a privilege to wear the jersey,” Sela said.

“I feel like something special is being built here for the future to come, so to carry on my journey in the Blue, Black and White is honestly a blessing. Psalm 37:5.”

The 20-year-old has made 14 first-team appearances since his debut against Leicester Tigers in September 2024,

On securing Sela’s future at Bath Rugby, van Graan commented: “We are so excited about Billy continuing at Bath. It has been great to see him progress through the Bath pathway and it’s a great testament not only to Billy but to all in our pathway.

“His development over the last few years as a young man has seen him grown immensely and his best is definitely yet to come.”
