World Rugby Dream Team wing Jess Breach extends Saracens stay after World Cup triumph

Jess Breach has committed her future to Saracens, with the Premiership Women’s Rugby club confirming the re-signing of the England wing ahead of the new season. The 29-year-old has scored 35 tries in more than 50 appearances since joining from the 2022/23 campaign.

Breach arrives into the new season in career-defining form. She was named in the World Rugby Women’s 15 Dream Team of the Year for 2026 and played every match as England claimed the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 crown. Across 61 Test appearances for the Red Roses, she has scored 58 tries — a record that underlines her status as one of the most clinical finishers in the women’s game.

At club level, her impact has been equally decisive. Last season she crossed twice in Saracens’ 52-14 demolition of Trailfinders Women in the PWR final at the Twickenham Stoop, and she is a multiple Guinness Women’s Six Nations winner with England.

Saracens Director of Rugby Alex Austerberry paid tribute to Breach’s contribution both on and off the field. “Jess is a proven finisher at the highest level of the game. Her speed and ability to beat players has led to many incredible scores on the biggest of stages in the most important of moments,” he said. “Jess has the innate ability to create something out of nothing and that is rare in any sport.”

Austerberry also highlighted Breach’s role in developing younger players within the squad. “Her work and support with younger players and helping nurture the development of their game has also proven invaluable,” he added.

The end of 2026 brought some turbulence for the Red Roses, who lost back-to-back matches against Canada in October. Breach featured in both defeats and was absent for England’s final international of the year against the USA Women’s Eagles. She scored five tries in eight Test appearances across the calendar year.

With the new PWR season approaching, Saracens will look to Breach — now a World Cup winner and one of the game’s most decorated wings — to again be central to their title defence.
