Mark here, I have been asked to write a few things down about myself so here goes (you're only getting the good bits!!).
I was educated at Trinity Primary School and Hawick High School and only missed out on going to Uni (ha! ha!).
Have worked in the knitwear trade all my working life so far and am currently at Hawick Cashmere Company.
I also help run the Boys Brigade and am Captain of the 6th Hawick Company.
To my rugby career - I started playing when I was at Trinity and continued to play at High School. I then moved up to play semi junior rugby with Hawick PSA then went on to play for the Hawick Trades RFC.
On the coaching side, I have only coached Trinity Primary School for 4 years, so to come and coach at the Albion is another step up for myself and also the boys who are playing.
So I am looking forward to helping every boy in developing their rugby and for them, hopefully, to progress to the big Hawick team.
