Biography
Jamison Ratu Gibson-Park is a professional rugby union player who plays as a scrum-half for United Rugby Championship club Leinster. Born in New Zealand, he represents Ireland at international level after qualifying on residency grounds.
International career
Māori All Blacks
Although the then 20-year-old Gibson-Park had only played eleven matches for Taranaki, Jamie Joseph, the Māori All Blacks coach, selected him for the 2012 end of year tour to England, playing against domestic club team Leicester Tigers, an invitational RFU Championship XV, and ending against the Canadian national team.
Ireland
In August 2019, Gibson-Park became eligible to play for Ireland under the World Rugby's eligibility rules.
In October 2020, he was named in the Ireland squad by coach Andy Farrell for the remaining matches of the 2020 Six Nations Championship. Gibson Park came off the bench against Italy for his first cap on 24 October 2020.
In November 2021, he was selected as the starting scrum-half for Ireland's test against Japan, scoring his first international try in a 60–5 victory. He kept his place for the visit of New Zealand a week later and played a key role in a 29–20 win over his native country. His performance against New Zealand earned him praise for his speed of service and work-rate in defence. He scored a try in Ireland's 30–24 loss against France in the 2022 Six Nations, and then another against Italy two weeks later in a 57–6 win.
