MICHAEL SMITH
FORWARD/ BACK ROW

We are excited to announce Michael will be returning to SD Legion for his 3rd season. Michael needs no introduction as he is one of our fan favorites. He made a huge impact in his first season and was named our Rookie of the Year in 2021, then continuing his great form he went on to be our Player of the Season in 2022, playing all but one game last season.

Not only is Michael a talented rugby player, but he also works hard off the field and was awarded Academic All-Canadian from 2017-2020 while attending the University of British Columbia.

He gained international honors when he was selected in 2018 for the Canadian U20s at the World Rugby Trophy competition and more notably has played 10 tests for Canada.

“We are looking forward to Michael emulating his 2022 form this season. He was our Player Of The Year and made a real mark for himself within the MLR. He’s a very special player that also has room to grow and we will provide him with every opportunity to do so this season” from Head Coach Danny Lee
