Stuart Corsar has joined Glasgow on a full time pro contract after starting season 2005/06 as an apprentice, making the step up with a remarkable try against Leinster.

Stuart Alexander Corsar, a product of the Garioch club in Inverurie, represented Caledonia at under-16, under-18, under-19 and under-20, captaining the district at both under-18 and under-19, and he played also for Scottish Schools at under-16 and Scotland at under-18, under-19, and under-21 levels.

His under-19 honours included all four matches in the world championship in France in 2003, when he scored a try against Romania. He made his under-21 debut in the world championship warm-up match against Ireland in May 2004, and he went on to play in four of the five championship games in Scotland.

He was again in the national under-21 squad for all five matches in 2005 Six Nations Championship, when Scotland scored victories against Ireland (for the first time), Italy, and England, and he played, too, in the age groups' subsequent world championship in Mendoza, Argentina.

Stuart, a former pupil of Inverurie Academy, took a sports coaching and development course at Aberdeen College and worked as a leisure and gym attendant at Garioch Sports Centre before joining Glasgow Warriors in the summer of 2005.

He has also been part of the Scottish Thistles sevens development squad. He is a member of the National Rugby Academy (Glasgow) and the West of Scotland Institute of Sport.

Stuart was last season's Scotland U21 player of the year and played for his country in the U21 World Cup in Argentina.

Hello!!!!!! I`m From Mendoza, Argentina, and i saw when Stuart came here for the world championship, I just wanted to say that i saw him playing and i had the chance to met him on person, and he is not only the best player, but also he is a really good person, he is the best, also he was an inspiration for my lil brother who now is playing rugby because of him.
I hope he is ok now, and that he can play very soon, and the other players that are injure too
I also hope to hear about him on the scottish biggest selection

Alright Corsar! Remember me?! Great to hear you're doing so well, Garioch RFC seems a long time ago now. Hope you and the boys are doing well. Lose some weight!

Hi Stuart. It's David Grainey NVQ here from Clackmannanshire Councils Sports Development. Just like to thank you again on behalf of the children and myself for taking part in the pro player pilot. the kids loved it and hope to see you again. The session went well and your welcome back at any time. You gave the children someone to look up to and i hope they will take in all the advice you gave them. Thanks again and good luck in the future.
