Dave Morris appointed new London Scottish Director of Rugby

London Scottish have confirmed that Dave Morris has been appointed as the new Director of  Rugby for the 2017/18 season.

"Dave was the outstanding candidate for this role and we have no doubt that he will be a success at London Scottish," commented Chief Executive Carson Russell.

"With his achievements at Loughborough it is clear that he is ready to make the step up to the Championship and we look forward to him taking charge.”

Morris has been with Loughborough Students for 11 years after taking over in 2006 and will now swap Leicestershire for London as he starts a new challenge in Richmond.

The former Blackheath hooker has made them a firmly established side in National One with a number of promotions and led them to become the first student side to take part in the national leagues.
