Peter Short (born 20 June, 1979 in Liverpool, England) is a rugby union footballer who plays as a Lock forward for Bath Rugby in the Guinness Premiership.
Short began his career with Moseley, before moving to top English side Leicester Tigers. There he mostly played in the back row at blindside flanker. After two years at Leicester as a squad member but never really breaking into the first XV, he moved to RC Narbonne of France and then to Bath.
He has converted from flanker to Lock, putting on the extra weight needed for that position but which is a hindrance to speed in the back row.
He has been called into the England Saxons squad to face Italy A in Ragusa, Sicily on 9 February 2008.
Short represented England Saxons at the 2009 Churchill Cup.
