Mike Haywood (born 10 November 1991) is an English rugby union player who currently plays for Aviva Premiership side Northampton Saints. His position is at hooker.

Haywood was a product of the Northampton Saints academy and was given a two-year contract with the side in 2011.[2] In 2013, Haywood renewed his contract with the Saints.[3]

The hooker was instrumental in some of Saints' biggest successes including starting in the 2014 Aviva Premiership final and the European Challenge Cup final, as well as featuring in the Midlands side's Aviva Premiership semi-final win over local rivals Leicester Tigers and Saints' win that ended Ulster Rugby's long time European home record.[4][5][6][7]
