Stuart Legg (rugby union)

Legg learned his rugby at Solihull School. He matriculated at Durham University in 1994 and represented the university rugby team, where he was a teammate of Will Greenwood.^[2]

After university Legg turned professional with Newcastle, making his debut against Bath Rugby in the first match of the season, where he played 54 minutes and scored a try.^[3] He soon became the first choice fullback, reducing the more experienced Tim Stimpson to the bench and ultimately the transfer list.^[4] He made 21 appearances^[3] during the 1997-98 season, which saw his team win the league for the first time - having been promoted from National Division 2 the year before.

By the 1999-2000 season Legg found opportunities were more limited and he made only 10 starts.^[3] He then signed for Biarritz, where he won the Championship title during the 2001-2002 season.^[5] The following season he joined Treviso, playing another four years before retiring from rugby.^[5]
