David Cherry

Hooker


Dave Cherry 6N25

A product of Merchiston Castle School, Dave Cherry played his senior rugby at Currie before making the move to English Championship side London Scottish in 2014.

The hooker soon cemented himself in the Championship outfit’s starting XV, but after three seasons at the Athletic Ground, Cherry joined Stade Niçois as part of Scottish Rugby’s performance pathway partnership.

After joining Edinburgh Rugby, Dave went on to enjoy a memorable Scotland debut in 2021, coming off the bench as part of the Calcutta Cup-winning squad, before scoring a brace of tries on his first Test start, against Italy, the month after.

Cherry was part of the squad for the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France.
