Bath have signed England Under-20 hooker Jack Walker from Yorkshire Carnegie ahead of next season.

The 19-year-old won the Junior World Championship in 2014 alongside Bath's Charlie Ewels and Tom Woolstencroft.

Walker became the youngest forward to appear for the Leeds side in 2013, playing against Bristol, becoming their youngest-ever captain a year later.

"Now is the time for me to take the next step and I'm confident I've got what it takes to succeed," he said.
