Rugby fans are being invited to hear behind-the-scenes stories from two Scottish rugby legends at a special evening in Edinburgh next month.

Former Scotland captain and British and Irish Lion Greig Laidlaw will join former Scotland international Johnnie Beattie at Duddingston Golf Club on Thursday, November 26.

The event, held during the Autumn Internationals, will feature a relaxed question-and-answer session, giving guests the chance to hear about the pair’s careers, experiences representing Scotland and life behind the scenes in international rugby.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to put their own questions to the former players.

Niall Watson, general manager of Duddingston Golf Club, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to welcome two true icons of Scottish rugby to Duddingston Golf Club.

“Greig and Johnnie have given fans so many incredible memories over the years, and hearing their behind-the-scenes stories during the Autumn Internationals will be a real treat.
