Robert Stewart: Chairman
From directly across the water from Scotstoun, I first found my love of
rugby at High School. Only got to House level as, to be fair, I was
pretty rank. Much better at Badminton, Table Tennis and Ludo! Much to the
disappointment of my parents I opted for earning money rather than getting a
further education. Been working since leaving school in Civil
Engineering, both Private and latterly Public Sector. Followed GHK, then Hawks
before settling for Warriors from Hughenden days. Happy Season Ticket holder.
Foolishly went to meeting of Xvith Warrior as curiosity got the better of
me. Proud to be Chair and that we continue to make a difference to the
supporters both home and away. Love the game, team and the rugby nation.
Thomas Anderson : Vice Chairman
Joined the Navy at 17 and stayed for 23 years, then onto the MOD as a Salvage Supervisor. I have followed Cartha QP since my teens and got to as many games as possible in between travel with the navy. I started following Glasgow Warriors when they played at Firhill and then onto Scotstoun where I have a season ticket for the North Stand. Managed to join the XVIth Warrior Committee when I wasn't even at the meeting! Enjoy the home games and all the travel involved in the away games.
Beth Anderson: Treasurer
Loved watching Scotland games with my dad when I was younger and was a regular at Cartha QP in my youth but mainly on the social side. Started going to Glasgow Warrior games when they played at Firhill and then got a season ticker in the North Stand and the rest is history? Love the travel involved in supporting the team and the home games at Scotstoun. Management Accountant at Quarriers and before the Cashroom Manager at the same Law Centre as Elizabeth
Elizabeth Stewart: Secretary
Been a Glasgow supporter since the Hughenden days and a member at
Glasgow Hawks before that. Went to Govan High School, not a school
renowned for its rugby but managed to find my way to the true path
eventually. Left school to work for an investment management company
where I was employed for 30 years. Currently the Office Manager of a law
centre in Glasgow. Apart from work, rugby takes up most of time.
Gillian Frew: Assistant Treasurer
I have been a rugby fan since my teens, getting to know "the
ins and outs" of rugby through commentary from Bill McLaren on the 5
Nations. Latterly I was keen to see what was happening in Scottish Rugby
below the national team, hence I started going along to Glasgow and Edinburgh
games. I became a Glasgow Warriors season ticket holder in 2010. I
enjoy "Friday night rugby" after a hectic week at work in the Health
Service! I am also part of the Scottish Rugby Union's "Blue Crew"
volunteering at international games helping enhance the match day
experience. I also took up playing rugby in 2017 and then in 2019 I
undertook the Level 1 referee and am starting to referee youth and reserve 2nds
games.
Pamela White: Media Manager
I am Pamela the XVIth Warrior Media
Manager. I have been an avid rugby fan
for a little over 20 years, I played rugby for a short time while at university
but having moved away after graduation I moved onto beer drinking and cheering
on from the stands. One of my favourite
aspects of rugby and the XVIth Warrior Supporters is the consistent warm welcome
everyone gives.
Iain Papworth: Ordinary Board
Member
No rugby in school for me, so I got into rugby socially. I’d watched
rugby growing up & it was the 1991 World Cup that got me to take up the
game. Played at Hamilton through under 18s & for a number of years with the
seniors. During that time I was also a qualified youth coach. It was always a
bit strange playing in the same team as those that I’d previously
coached. My rugby playing days may be well behind me but I still
love the camaraderie that you get with the rugby community. It’s something that
is hard to match. Having taken advantage of the fabulous events & meet ups
that the XVIth Warrior have arranged, I felt it right to get involved &
help out. After all you get back what you put in.
Paul Phillips: Ordinary Board Member
Played rugby at bit at school but after leaving I played American
Football; at least the ball was the right shape and then fell away from the
game. In 2000 a friend at work asked me to go to the see the Caley
Reds. I had never heard of them but head over to Hughenden and watched
them beat Cross Keys and that was me hooked on rugby. I have been really
impressed with the work of the XVith Warrior and hope to be able to continue
this.
Siobhan McKinnon: Ordinary Board Member
I fell in love with rugby during the 2011 Rugby World Cup. My first ever away game was to Dublin to watch the first Leinster versus Glasgow final, then boom I was part of the "East Stand Massive". I love every minute of spending time with my rugby family so couldn't wait to become part of the XVith Warrior to help contribute to everyone's match day experience.
Martin Clarke: Ordinary Board Member
Outwith rugby, you can easily find me playing badly on a golf course.
Rachel Blyth : Co-opted member
I have been a Glasgow warriors fan for a long time now and I am a season
ticket holder in the West Stand. I work
as a customer advisor for a livestock nutrition company. My only away games so far has been our Champions
Cup game to Sale Sharks in Januray 2019 and loved every minute of it. I attend all home games for glasgow and try
to get to most Scotland home games too.
I am glad to be a part of the XVIth Warrior and feel I can bring so much
into the great group that has already been formed.
