Sandy Gray has been involved and a great supporter of
Carnoustie Rugby Club for the past six years having taken
his son Xander along to try the sport out. He told us, “I live
locally so when Xander, who was in primary two at the time,
showed an interest in joining the club I took him along to
try it out. It wasn’t too long before I was coaching his team.
Now at age 12, and recovering from an eye operation,
he still enjoys his Rugby as does his younger brother Fergus
who followed him into the sport and can’t get enough
of it literally living and breathing rugby. Both of my sons
are definitely forward players like their dad and I can still
occasionally be seen turning out in the second row position
for the over 35’s.

“I started playing rugby in the clubs midi section and still turn out
for the club aged 40. Although predominantly a back-row player I’ll will
play wherever needed. I also coach my son’s team and both Yestyn and
my daughter Esme are players at the club
I can’t speak highly enough about Colin Murray’s contribution to
the club and the great committee who support the club and each other.
The 1st XV have been building over the past few years and have a
nucleus of team members who are committed to each other.
My business Greencastle Home Improvements are a club sponsor
and are proud to support Carnoustie. Kevin Franco, man of the match
in the recent win against DUMs also spearheads the School of Rugby
in the local school ensuring the inclusion of young people into the club
and contributes to the rugby festival.
Winning the league this year will mean everything to the team and
the club and although I feel my playing career is now coming to an end
Carnoustie Rugby Club will continue into the distant future!”

As a coach I get to meet a lot of parents and see how
they enjoy our club first-hand. The development of both
girls and boys is a real joy to watch and as a club VP I do my
best to attend the seniors home games. The brand of rugby
they are displaying at the moment is great on the eye and
will hopefully take them beyond the winning post before
the season end. Our business Sarah Gray Jam have been
a sponsor for the past four years and we enjoy supporting
the club in any way we can.
Myself, Sarah and the boys wish everyone associated
with Carnoustie Rugby Club the very best of continued
success for many more years to come!”
