Lock. 6’4” 17st. 2lb. Born 16/8/1964 in Cardiff.

Rugby Pedigree:- Weston R.F.C. (at age 15), England Colts, England Under 23 (Captain), and South West Division. In 1984 he was selected as England lock against Australia when he was 20 years old. He went on to win 20 England caps and was in England’s World Cup squads in 1987 and 1991.
Nigel played on the British Lions Tour 1997 and proudly captained the Lions midweek side against Northern Free State winning 52-30.

Nigel’s debut 1ST XV:-
1/10/1983 v Aberavon, Away, Lost 16-25. Team:- C S Ralston, D Trick (2 tries) S Halliday, J Palmer (conversion and 2 penalties), B Trevaskis, J Horton (Capt.), R Hill, G Chilcott, K Adams, R Lee, N Gaymond, N Redmond, J Hall, P Simpson, S Jones

Nigel Redman’s arrival at the Club was to add to a growing list of truly outstanding players. His first outing was something of a baptism of fire against Welsh international Allan Martin. As always – ‘Ollie’ performed with distinction.

His final Bath appearance was 7/3/1999 v Newcastle after 349 games, 34 tries and 146 points.

Nigel is a senior R.F.U. National Academy Coach.
Also, he is well known to TV viewers as an ‘eagle-eyed’ match analysis expert.
Glad to help out with Bath Minis on Sunday mornings.
