Matt Smith (born 15 November in Leicester) is a rugby union footballer who plays utility back for Leicester Tigers and England U-21.
Matt made his Tigers debut against the Barbarians in March 2006 and, by the close of the 2006/07 season, had played on a further three occasions for the first team. Matt has been a regular member of Tigers’ successful Development XV over the past two seasons, where his versatility has seen him excel at centre, full-back or fly-half. He scored his first senior try last season, crossing during the friendly encounter with Marcelo Loffreda’s Argentina at Welford Road in February.
The son of former Tigers flanker, skipper and coach Ian ‘Dosser’ Smith, Matt joined the Tigers Junior Academy at U-16 level and represented Oakham School in their 2003 Daily Mail Cup Final win at Twickenham. Matt is now entering his second year as a member of the first-team squad in 2007/08 but he is also set to continue to benefit from the game time offered to him by National One outfit Nottingham.
