A former Australia U20 international, Horwitz featured extensively for the Waratahs over the past two seasons, operating as both 10 and 12. However, he has struggled to make an impact for the Rebels so far this season as he sits behind Reece Hodge and Bill Meakes in the pecking order at centre and Jack Debreczeni at out-half.
“I have enjoyed my time in Super Rugby and would like to thank the Rebels and their fans for my time there,” said Horwitz in today’s statement.
“Connacht are really ambitious about their plans for the future and I share that ambition and hope to contribute to bringing further success to the province. I am looking forward to focusing more on my favoured position of out-half with Connacht.”

“David is a quality out-half who has also built up considerable experience at centre,” says Connacht CEO Willie Ruane.
“His Super Rugby credentials are obvious having featured heavily for the Waratahs last season. He will be another strong addition to Connacht and we look forward to his arrival next season.”
