Ben Skirving has signed a two-year contract extension with former European Champions Bath Rugby.
The 27-year-old back row has made 49 appearances for the West Country side since his move from Saracens in 2009 and has the rare achievement of having featured in every match-day squad this season.
The England International made his 50th European appearance against Biarritz Olympique in January.
"I am very happy to be re-signing with Bath for another two years," said Skirving
"I have greatly enjoyed my time here so far, and feel I can contribute more to the team over the coming seasons as the Club moves forward. I am really excited about staying and being part of what I think will be a bright and successful future."
Sir Ian McGeechan, Director of Rugby, commented "We are very happy Ben has agreed to stay with the Club. He has been a very effective player for us this season, and his hard work and dependability is a very good example to the rest of the squad."
