Mitchell Drummond (born 15 February 1994) is a New Zealand Rugby Union player who currently plays as a half-back for Canterbury in the ITM Cup[1][2] and the Crusaders in Super Rugby.[3][4]
Career
Originally hailing from Nelson, Drummond captained the Nelson College First XV before shifting south to Canterbury in 2013.[1] After being involved in several development squads in the early part of the year, Drummond was named in Canterbury's 2013 ITM Cup team where he largely served as back-up to the more experienced Andy Ellis and Willi Heinz.[2] He managed only 1 appearance during the campaign, however he did enough to catch the eye of the Crusaders coaching staff who handed him a Super Rugby contract ahead of the 2014 season.[3]
Drummond is also a keen cricketer and represented Nelson at cricket as well as rugby union.[1] He is also the drummer for the band Mond who have gone to win the Christchurch East, Church Battle of the Bands April Competition.
