Ross Ford

Ross William Ford (born 23 April 1984)[1] is a Strength and Conditioning coach for the Scottish Rugby Academy.

He initially signed for the Glasgow Warriors in August 2007[6] but on 18 October 2007 it was announced[7] that he had been transferred to Edinburgh who were back under the Scottish Rugby Union's control in that year.

[9] Ford was first capped by the Scotland senior side in the 2004 Abbey Autumn Tests against Australia at Murrayfield, making his second appearance over a year later, coming on as a replacement against Wales in the 2006 RBS 6 Nations.

After one further appearance against England he missed the 2006 summer tour to South Africa through a knee injury but returned to the Scotland squad in the 2007–08 season.

[10] He followed that up by winning plaudits for his line out throwing and play in both tight and loose in Scotland's World Cup warm-up victory against Ireland.

[16] His one hundredth cap came against Australia in November 2016, with only two other Scots previously having gained 100 caps- Chris Paterson and Sean Lamont.
