Humberstone graduated through the Harlequins Academy, gaining representative honours with South East England and England Students.
Following a season spent playing with Heriot RFC in the Otago province of New Zealand, Simon returned to the UK to study at UWIC, featuring prominently as a high scoring outside half in the college's championship winning division one east campaign.
The outside half had been targeted by a number of Premiership clubs, but decided on a move to Pontypridd, which will bolster the club's strength in depth in the crucial half back department.[3]
In January 2014 Humberstone signed a full-time contract with Cardiff Blues.[4]
