  • Rosie Galligan Bio

    Born on 30 April 1998 in Finchley, Rosie Galligan found her love of the sport via touch rugby. She was an excellent athlete during her childhood, representing Kent at age group level in rugby, hockey and cricket.

    After a successful youth career at Aylesford Bulls, she signed for Saracens ahead of the 2016-17 season. Only a year later, she had become an integral member of the first team. 

    Galligan briefly left Saracens in 2021 to enjoy a stint at Harlequins. However, she returned to her beloved Saracens in 2023 and has remained with the squad ever since. 

    Thanks to her exploits at club level, Galligan caught the eye of international selectors at a young age. By the 2017-18 season, she had already started to represent England at U20 level. 

    Galligan impressed immediately and, in 2019, she made her full debut for her country when she came off the bench against Ireland in the Six Nations. Ever since, she has been a regular starter for the team when fit and she was named in her country’s squads for the 2021 and 2025 Rugby World Cups.

    Galligan made six appearances for England during Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025, including coming off the bench in the 73rd minute for their victory over Canada in the final.

    Still young and with her best years ahead of her, we can’t wait to see what the future holds for Rosie Galligan.
