Harlequins have confirmed that utility back Cameron Anderson has extended his contract, following a successful first season at the Twickenham Stoop. The versatile back-three man is equally adapted to wing or fullback, and arrived at Quins from their local Championship club London Scottish.

Since arriving from the Exiles in June 2023, Anderson racked up three appearences for Harlequins in the Gallagher Premiership, including the 32-26 win over Gloucester Rugby at Big Game 15. The 24-year-old also featured against Cardiff Rugby in the Investec Champions Cup, starting on the left wing in the 15-54 victory in the Welsh capital.

It's been a rewarding experience, and I've enjoyed learning from some of the best in the business and developing my game alongside some world-class players. I'm excited for another season at Quins, we have a great group of lads, and I can't wait to see what we can achieve.”
