BATH have signed Dominic Day on a three-year contract.

The 26 year old lock is currently playing in the RaboDirect Pro12 with the Scarlets, making 97 appearances so far.

Director of rugby Sir Ian McGeechan said: “Dominic is already an experienced player, having played in both the RaboDirect Pro12 and the Heineken Cup.

"He has a good range of skills necessary in a lock, and at 26 has the potential to develop further.

"He has a great attitude and we have no doubt that he’ll fit in very well with the Bath culture and be a great addition to the squad.”

Day added: “Bath are a hugely ambitious club, and I’m very excited to be joining them.

"I’ve loved my time with the Scarlets, but feel it’s the right time in my career for a change and to move on.

"The Aviva Premiership is a hugely competitive league and playing in it is a challenge I’ve always wanted, so I’m really looking forward to getting involved and pushing myself in a new league.”
