BATH have announced the signing of fly-half Josh Lewis from Welsh side Ebbw Vale for next season.

The 25-year-old’s form in Vale’s 2013 SWALEC Championship triumph secured a move to Scarlets, while he continued his development with Welsh Premiership side Llanelli RFC amassing more 350 points in his 36 games.

Lewis said: “I’m really excited to be joining Bath. It’s a huge opportunity for me to continue developing my all-round game, and I’m looking forward to the challenge.”

Director of Rugby Todd Blackadder added: “Josh is a promising fly-half and will provide added depth and competition, which will undoubtedly help to drive the team forward.

“He’s shown glimpses of what he can do in Wales and I’m excited to see him fulfil his potential here at Bath Rugby.”
