A proud product of Saint Kentigern College in Auckland, prop Ben Ake is no stranger to the Blues environment, having first joined the squad as injury cover during the 2024 season.
Ake has come through the club’s development pathway, representing the Blues at Under-18 and Under-20 level, and was a member of the 2023 New Zealand Under-20 team. His strong scrummaging technique and work ethic have made him one of the most promising young front-rowers in the country.
Earning his first full Blues contract in 2025, Ake continues to develop his game under the guidance of the team’s experienced group of props, adding power and depth to the squad’s front-row stocks.
He is contracted with the Blues through until the end of the 2027 season.
