In 2017/18, Trinder was awarded try of the week in Week 6 for his try against Northampton Saints[2] and again in Week 14 for his try against Leicester Tigers.[3]

Trinder was called up to the England national side for the uncapped annual fixture against the Barbarians in May 2014.[4]

On 12 April 2021, after 13 years playing at Kingsholm, it was confirmed that Trinder would leave Gloucester to sign for Vannes in the Pro D2 competition in France as a medical joker for the rest of the 2020–21 season.[5][6]

In August 2021 it was announced that he had signed for RFU Championship side Ampthill as a player-coach.[7]
