Exeter Chiefs back Liv McGoverne has agreed a deal to stay at Sandy Park for the 2025-26 Premiership Women’s Rugby season.
The 27-year-old New Zealander – who can play at fly-half or centre – re-joined the club last summer.
McGoverne had spent the 2022-23 season at Exeter, playing 26 games, scoring five tries and kicking 204 points, before returning to her homeland for a year.
She was Exeter’s leading points scorer last season with 55 points, including two tries, as the Chiefs missed out on the play-offs for the first time since 2021.
“Liv has shown her value at both 10 and 12 this season and has brought both attacking creativity and defensive physicality,” Exeter assistant coach Steve Salvin said.
“Liv’s kicking game, both from hand and at goal, is constantly improving and her laid-back manner has a great influence on the group.”
