Jamie Weston (born 8 January 1976 in Scotland) is a former Scottish rugby union player who played for Glasgow Warriors at the Scrum-half position.[2]
Weston played for Glasgow District as a schoolboy.[2] He went to Kelvinside Academy but then finished his schooling at Merchiston Castle School. He played once for the senior side against North and Midlands in 1996.[4]
He then found himself in the professional Glasgow side when the district turned professional in 1996.[5] He played in European competition for Glasgow in the European Conference - now European Challenge Cup - against Sale Sharks, Clermont, Newport and Agen, scoring a try against Agen.[1] The following season he was named in Glasgow's squad but not used.
He left Glasgow Warriors to play for Watsonians.[2] He left Watsonians to go to Oxford.[6] He was however playing for Watsonians from 1994.[7]
He then was offered another professional contract by Edinburgh Rugby but lost his place on the merger of Edinburgh with the Border Reivers.[2] However, when the Border team was revived, Weston was to play for the Border Reivers.[8]
He was captain of the Oxford University rugby team.[2][9] Weston turned down a contract with Glasgow Caledonians to go to - and play rugby for - Oxford University.[10] Weston played for Oxford University in the Melrose Sevens.[11] Oxford University Sevens with Weston as captain won the Rosslyn Park Floodlit Sevens in London.[12]
He was capped by Scotland Under 21s.[2][13]
