Alex Hearle (born 8 November 1998) is an English rugby union player who plays for Worcester Warriors in the Premiership Rugby.
Hearle was called into Worcester Warriors first-team action while he was still at Shrewsbury College as he came off the bench to play against Wasps in the Anglo-Welsh Cup at the Ricoh Arena in 2016.[1]
He was soon named in the Warriors Senior Academy ahead of the 2017/18 campaign and made two more appearances for the first-team that season, as well as impressing for Worcester Cavaliers in the Premiership Rugby A League. Hearle spent most of the 2018-19 season on loan at Birmingham Moseley, helping them to secure their National League 1 status.[2]
He impressed with his pace and strength playing for Cavaliers in their Premiership Rugby Shield campaign and was involved in Warriors' matchday squads three times against Saracens during the 2018-19 season - featuring once as a replacement in the Premiership Rugby Cup semi-final at Sixways Stadium.[3]
His first senior try came as a replacement for Dean Hammond in the Premiership Rugby Cup victory over Leicester Tigers in the opening match of the 2019-20 season.[4]
On 14 May 2020, Hearle signed his first professional contract to stay with the Warriors, thus promoted to the senior squad from the 2020-21 season.[5] He then made his Premiership debut at Exeter Chiefs in August 2020, after recovering from ankle injury which required surgery and had him sidelined for six months.[6]
