Charlie Amesbury (born 8 April 1986 in Portsmouth) is a rugby union footballer who plays on the wing or full back for Sale Sharks after signing from Newcastle Falcons in the Summer of 2011. He also plays for England Sevens.

Amesbury started playing rugby at the age of six; playing mini-rugby at Petersfield R.F.C.. He joined Lord Wandsworth College when he was 13 and by the age of 15 was of a good enough standard to represent the Under 16's.[2]

In 2004, Amesbury played full back for the London & South East Division and was selected for the England training group. Also in 2004 he played for England Under 18's and during the 2004/05 season played regularly for Quins in the Zurich A League.[2] He made his First XV debut for Quins during the 2005–06 season; scoring twice in the 43–3 victory over Otley at the Stoop.[3]

Amesbury was part of the England Sevens squad that competed in the 2006-07 IRB Sevens World Series.[4]

Amesbury made his starting debut for Quins against Leeds at the beginning of the 2007–08 season.[5] A Quins academy player, he was rewarded with a first team contract.[6] At the end of the 2008–09 season he chose to move on due to the lack of game time at Quins and signed for Premiership side Newcastle Falcons.[7]
