Charlie Beech (born 21 July 1987 in Stevenage, England) is a rugby union player for Coventry R.F.C. in the RFU Championship. He plays as a prop.

Beech represented England at the U19 World Championship in 2006.[3] Beech also represented the England under-20 team in the 2007 Six Nations.[4]

Beech joined the academy of Northampton Saints in 2003,[5] he made one appearance for their senior side, against Rugby Viadana in the European Challenge Cup.[6] After Saints were relegated in the 2006–07 season, Beech signed for London Wasps.[7]

Beech made his competitive debut for Wasps against London Irish, in their first win of the 2007–08 Guinness Premiership.[8] He would have to wait another 13 months before his next appearance,[5] when he scored a match winning try against the Newcastle Falcons.[9] In April 2009, Beech signed a contract.[10]

It was announced on 8 March 2011 that Beech had signed for Bath on a three-year deal.[11] In October 2013, Beech signed for Yorkshire Carnegie on an indefinite loan from the rest of the 2013–14 season.[12] However, he signed a permanent deal with Yorkshire Carnegie, effectively leaving Bath.[13]

On 8 April 2018, Beech left Leeds to join Championship rivals Coventry[14]
