'England fly-half agrees new Bath contract'

England fly-half George Ford has signed a new deal with Premiership side Bath. The 22-year-old, who moved to The Rec in 2013 from Leicester Tigers, has won 17 England caps and started their opening match at the 2015 World Cup before being left out for Owen Farrell. "It sounds like a cliche, but it really was an easy decision to stay here," said Ford, whose father Mike is the club's head coach. "I'm really looking forward to the next two years." He added: "I feel like I've become a better player since joining. "I always wanted to stay here, it's a great environment to be a part of. I'm very excited about the next couple of years, being part of this team and hopefully being successful at this club."
