“She is a fierce ball carrier with a big desire to improve and is a leader by nature who will drives standards around her.”
Stafford added: “The opportunity to join a hugely exciting project at the Bears was one I jumped at, and I’m already raring to go.
“The Bears’ rugby programme is world class and the facilities at the High Performance Centre are unrivalled in the women’s game, so it’s an exciting time to be a Bear.”
