Evans featured for Warriors during pre-season, playing in the first game at Sixways Stadium in three years as Warriors hosted Premiership champions Bath.

He went on to play twice in The Champ for the side, enjoying a 100 percent win record with victories over Caldy and Nottingham in rounds six and seven.

On signing for the side, having already spent time with them, Evans said: "I'm incredibly excited to be officially joining Worcester Warriors.

"I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to experience the incredible support and heritage of this club this season, and I can't wait to experience it all next season.

"I'm fully committed to kick on my career at this club and I can't wait to see where this group can go."

Warriors head coach Matt Everard added: "Owain is a familiar face to Warriors fans having featured in a Warriors shirt this season.

"Owain has an outstanding work rate and has come off a brilliant season leading Loughborough in BUCS, which was rewarded by a call-up to England Students to play France."
