George Philip North (born 13 April 1992) is a Welsh and British and Irish Lions international rugby union player. His usual position is winger but he has also played at outside centre. He currently plays club rugby for Northampton Saints in the Aviva Premiership.
North was born in 1992 in King's Lynn. His mother is Welsh and from Anglesey, Wales, and his father is English and from Yorkshire. The family returned to Anglesey when he was aged two and he is a fluent Welsh language speaker. Educated at Ysgol Uwchradd Bodedern on Anglesey and later at Llandovery College in West Wales, he played as a junior for Llangefni, Pwllheli, Rhyl and Gogledd Cymru under-16s.
Up to the point of his international call-up, North had played six matches for the Scarlets first team, a record restricted by an injury.
After an impressive start to the 2010 season, in October 2010, he was selected to the 33 man squad for the Autumn international series. On 11 November 2010 North was named in the Wales team to face South Africa on 13 November, making him the joint third youngest player to represent Wales behind Tom Prydie and Norman Biggs and equal to Evan Williams.
