Henry Robert Spring (born 14 March 2001) is a Fijian international rugby union player

Born in Suva, Spring is the fourth oldest of seven siblings and attended Queen Victoria School, which he captained to an under-15s Deans Cup title in 2015, before taking up a scholarship to France as a 16-year old.[1]

Spring played with Stade Français from 2019 to 2023.[2] He was called into the Fijian squad touring Europe in 2021, as a development opportunity, and made his international debut against Spain in Madrid, coming on off the bench to replace hooker Sam Matavesi for the final 15 minutes of the match.[3]
