Reflecting on his contract extension, Hardman commented: “My time at Ampthill as been brilliant so far, but being injured for most of last year was really disappointing. I owe it to the club, the staff and the players that helped me through to be raring to go. There’s a strong sense of purpose within the group, and I’m proud to be part of it for another season.”
Forwards & Defence Coach Richard Barrington said: “Dom is a key part of our front-row unit. His energy, physicality, and team-first attitude make him a great asset both on the pitch and around the club. We’re delighted to keep him onboard.”
With Dom recommitted for 2025-26, the Ampthill pack continues to take shape as preparations ramp up for another hard-fought season in Champ Rugby.
