Nick David (born 4 November 1998) is an English rugby union player who competes for Harlequins in the Premiership Rugby.

David became a part of Worcester Warriors academy for the 2017–18 season.[1] David made his senior debut in the Premiership Rugby Cup match against Saracens at Allianz Park in November 2018.[2]

He again impressed against Saracens in the Premiership Rugby Cup semi-final at Sixways Stadium in February 2019 but his season was ended by a shoulder injury which he sustained scoring his first try in that match.[3] David returned to action in the 2019 Premiership Rugby Sevens Series at Northampton in September 2019,[4] and came off the bench in the Premiership Rugby Cup match against Exeter Chiefs at Sixways later in the year.[5] He celebrated his Premiership debut by scoring a try in the 22–21 defeat by Bath at Sixways in February 2020 and scored another try against Bristol Bears the following week, 13–10 in a losing effort.[6][7]

On 17 June 2020, David signed his first professional contract to stay at Worcester at Sixways from the 2020–21 season.[8]

David is a NatWest Cup winner at Under 15 and 18 levels with Warwick School and has featured for England from Under 16 to 19 levels.[9][10][11]

On 19 April 2021, David would leave Worcester to sign for Premiership rivals Harlequins from the 2021-22 season.[12]
