Sam Vesty height - How tall is Sam Vesty?

In summer 2018 Vesty joined Northampton Saints as Attack and Backs coach, working under Chris Boyd. Boyd in 2019 said this recruitment was "was one of the best decisions I’ve made."

He then worked for a summer as skills coach for the England rugby team, under Eddie Jones, overseeing two Test victories over Argentina in 2017.

Vestey worked as a coach at Worcester Warriors from 2013, initially coaching the Worcester Cavaliers to the Premiership Rugby A League final for the very first time in the 2014/15 season. He then progressed from Transition Coach to Backs Coach two years later.

In April 2010 it was announced Vesty would be joining Bath Rugby on a 3-year contract at the end of the season.

Vesty was rewarded for his good end to season with a call up to the full England squad for the summer tour against Argentina. He made his début off the bench against Argentina in Old Trafford in June 2009.

He did not feature much in the early part of the 2008/09 season and had been considering leaving Leicester to get game time when circumstances changed in February 2009. With Toby Flood with the England squad and Derick Hougaard injured, Vesty was brought back to play at fly-half. This coincided with a change in fortune for Leicester who started rising up the Guinness Premiership table. Vesty remained in the team either at fly-half or inside centre for the rest of the season. He subsequently started as Leicester won the Premiership final that year.

He came through the Tigers academy, making his first team début in 2001 Biarritz in the Orange cup. Initially he played as fly-half after Andy Goode moved to Saracens, but he was young, inexperienced and at 12 stone had not properly bulked out (he later weighed 14 stone). He played in other backs positions and was voted the members player of the year for the 2005/06 season. Vesty played as a replacement when Leicester won the 2007 Premiership final.

Samuel Brook Vesty (born 26 November 1981) is an English rugby union player and coach. He played utility back (though his preferred position is full back) principally for Bath Rugby. He has had coaching roles principally at Worcester Warriors and Northampton Saints.

Vesty is the fourth generation of his family to play for the Tigers. His father Phil Vesty made 47 first-team appearances for Leicester as a prop between 1971 and 1976, his paternal grandfather Albert (Bernard) Vesty made one appearance for Leicester on the wing in the last game of the 1946/47 season, and a great-grandfather, Jack Dickens, a centre-cum-wing, made 15 first-team appearances for Tigers in the 1909–1910 season.
