Iain Paxton won 36 caps at No. 8 and lock for Scotland between 1981 and 1988, scoring a total of five tries. He made his debut against New Zealand on the 1981 tour and later that year he helped Scotland to a memorable 24-15 win over Australia at Murrayfield. He was also a key figure in Scotland’s 1984 Grand Slam winning side.
He began his coaching career at Glenrothes but for the past six years Paxton has coached Boroughmuir, during which time the Meggetland outfit have lifted the SRU Cup twice (2000 and 2001) and taken the league title once (2002-03 season). Paxton joined the under-21 coaching team last season, assisting former head coach Jonno Phillips.
