Club career
His first appearance for Leicester Tigers came as a replacement at home against Benetton Treviso in the Heineken Cup.
He was dual-registered with Nottingham for the 2009–10 season, and Harry Ellis's return from injury saw Harrison kept to a bench spot whilst the Leicester Academy team played in the Guinness A League.
Ellis's retirement in July 2010 resulted in Harrison's promotion to the full-time Leicester squad.
Sam is an ambassador for Dorothy Goodman School, a Special Educational Needs school in Hinckley, Leicestershire.
In 2016/17, his versatility earned him brief cover spells as fly half during periods of injury to both Freddie Burns and Owen Williams, even standing in as a goalkicker.
International career
Harrison has featured in the England U16, U18 and U20 squads.
