Bristol and England scum-half Shaun Perry has signed a new three-year contract at the club.

The 29-year-old is in his third season at the Memorial stadium and has just returned to action after fracturing his windpipe in December.

"I'm really happy to have put pen to paper. Bristol have been good to me over the past few seasons," said Perry.

"I feel that working with [Bristol head coach] Richard Hill has helped me take my game to a new level."

Perry has been capped 14 times by England but has falling behind in the pecking order, with Andy Gomarsall and then Richard Wigglesworth starting ahead of him during the recent Six Nations Championship.

He celebrated his return to the Bristol side by scoring two tries in the defeat of Leeds Carnegie last weekend.
