Glasgow Warriors have confirmed that centre Duncan Munn has signed his first professional contract with the club, marking a major step forward in his rugby journey.
The 21-year-old has been rewarded for his consistent development and strong performances this season.
Munn, who started playing rugby with Loch Lomond RFC, joined Glasgow’s academy setup in early 2022 after catching attention during his time with Boroughmuir Bears.
He made his senior debut for the Warriors in March 2024 in a hard-fought victory over Cardiff and has since earned three appearances, including two starts at inside centre in wins over Connacht and the Dragons.
The young midfielder expressed his joy and gratitude upon signing the contract: "I'm absolutely over the moon to sign my first professional contract with my boyhood club. It's a dream come true and I'm really grateful to the coaches and the club for this opportunity.
"Getting a run of games and some good minutes this season has been amazing, and I've loved the chances I've had to pull on the jersey. Running out in front of the fans at Scotstoun has been brilliant and I've loved every minute.
"Having such a good group of centres here to learn from is class, too. Being able to train with and against guys like Sione [Tuipulotu], Huw [Jones], Stafford [McDowall] and TJ [Tom Jordan] every day is unreal, and they're good blokes too that are always happy to talk to you and help you develop.
"I just want to get myself in the best physical shape that I can and put my hand up to be involved – I want to keep pushing to get better and to get as many minutes as I can in a Glasgow jersey."
Glasgow’s head coach Franco Smith commended Munn’s approach and potential:
"Duncan is a model example of a young professional, who is keen to learn from those around him and develop into the best possible version of himself.
"He comes to Scotstoun willing to work hard and develop, and he is fully committed to representing his boyhood club. He has a great amount of potential and we look forward to continuing to work with him over the coming seasons."
