Heiden Kahira Bedwell-Curtis (born 25 June 1991) is a New Zealand rugby union player. He plays in the flanker position for Manawatu in the Mitre 10 Cup.
He has international experience as well with the New Zealand national under-20 side.[1]
Career
Taranaki
Bedwell-Curtis played 2 matches for Taranaki in 2012.
Bedwell-Curtis made his debut for Taranaki, playing the 2012 season's first two Ranfurly Shield matches against King Country and Wanganui. He was contracted and made the Taranaki NPC squad, but broke his cheekbone playing for the development side which all but ruled him out for further appearances.
The uncertainty about whether or not he would be offered another contract with Taranaki had prompted Bedwell-Curtis to head to Manawatu on a one-year deal.[2]
Manawatu
In his debut season for Manawatu, Bedwell-Curtis snatched up the starting blindside flanker role for the Turbos. He has become a regular in the Manawatu lineup since moving south in 2013. He has been resigned for the 2016 Mitre 10 Cup season.[3]
Thanks to his progress with Manawatu, Bedwell-Curtis has been in and out of the Hurricanes Wider Training Group, but has yet to be called up for the senior side.[4][5]
