Glasgow Warriors stars pay special visit to East Kilbride Rugby Academy training session

Youngsters from East Kilbride Rugby Club were left starstruck recently when four players from Glasgow Warriors dropped in to help take training at Torrance House.

On April 17, four members of the Glasgow Warriors team came to train with the players at East Kilbride Rugby Academy, as Warriors stars Rory Darge, Jack Dempsey, Scott Cummings and Murphy Walker gave the youth players invaluable advice and tips about playing rugby.

Over 100 Academy boys and girls from the primary one age group right up to the under-18s were able to rub shoulders with the players and take part in drills on an unforgettable night.

EK Rugby Club’s Mini Convenor, Laura Fleming, said: “It was a great night for our players to meet their idols. The kids were really excited to meet the Warriors players and are still talking about the evening.

“The Warriors were impressed with the number of players we have at the club and the rugby skills which were on show throughout the training session.”
