Timeline
Roderick Robert Grant is a Scottish rugby union coach and former player.
Rugby runs in Roddy's family: his grandfather (Bob) and great-uncle (George) were international referees, the latter was also Scotland full back in 1950 and 1951 and manager of the 1977 Lions in New Zealand, and Grant's father played for British Universities.
He played as a flanker for Border Reivers, Edinburgh and Scotland sevens between 2006 and 2015, and has coached at the Scottish Rugby Academy and Edinburgh.
He joined Border Reivers in summer 2006 as an apprentice, and the following January he made his debut for the professional team as a substitute in the Magners League match against Newport Gwent Dragons at Rodney Parade.
Grant started as open-side flanker in all five of Scotland's matches in the 2006 Under 19 Rugby World Championship in Dubai in April 2006.
Later that year he made his international sevens debut for Scotland in the Dubai tournament which opened the IRB's 2006–07 series.
He played in six of the tournaments in that series.
That season, too, he had his Scotland Under-20 debut in the February 2007 match against England in Bath, and he continued in that team for the game against France in Bourg-en-Bresse.
He was awarded the 2008 John MacPhail Scholarship, allowing him to have a summer playing for Auckland University club in New Zealand.
In November 2008 he was the Scottish Thistles’ joint-top scorer with 45 points (nine tries) in the Singapore international sevens, and he went on to play in the Scotland squad in the 2008–09 IRB tournaments in Wellington (New Zealand), San Diego (USA), Hong Kong, Adelaide, Twickenham and Murrayfield as well as the RWC Sevens in Dubai, where he scored four tries in helping Scotland to win the Plate competition.
Over the 2008–09 sevens season he scored 23 tries, and his points tally of 115 was second only to Colin Gregor’s 171.
Grant also played two games for Scotland A in the IRB Nations Cup success in Bucharest in June 2009.
His debut was as a replacement in the win against Russia, and his first start followed four days later in the victory against Uruguay.
That same month he signed a professional contract with Edinburgh, and his Scotland A career continued with a replacement appearance in the 38–7 win against Tonga at Netherdale, Galashiels, in November 2009.
Grant was subsequently nominated for Young Player of the Season in the Celtic League for season 2009–10.
Grant trained with the senior Scotland squad during the 2010 Six Nations Championship.
