Trio step up to join Glasgow pool

Glasgow have handed professional contracts to Calum Forrester, Ruaridh Jackson and John Welsh.

Back-row Calum Forrester (GHA) and stand-off Jackson (Glasgow Hawks), who have both played for Scotland 7s, step up from the National Academy.

Prop Welsh (GHA) arrives straight from club level, with all three players having signed on until 2010.

"John Welsh could well prove to be a real gem," said Glasgow head coach Sean Lineen. "I'm excited by this find."
