Eighteen-year-old Ciaran, who lives in East Kilbride, has been playing for the club since he was seven years old and recently made his debut in the hooker position for the first team. Away from the club, Ciaran recently qualified as a barber.

The club said: “This is a fantastic milestone and a reflection of Ciaran’s commitment, consistency and contribution to the team over the years.  His dedication both on and off the field has been invaluable and we are proud to recognise this achievement.”

Bellway, whose divisional offices are based in Hamilton, provided sponsorship to enable Ciaran to buy game day kit and a bag.

Pauline Coates, sales director, Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland West), said: “Ciaran has made remarkable progress and we’re delighted to recognise and support his dedication to both his team and the club.”
