Minnesota takes down UCLA to join Oklahoma in NCAA Gymnastics Final Four!
Ollie Smith of Glasgow Warriors is eager to win the URC title after missing the 2024 victory due to an ACL injury. Now back in action, he aims to help his team, currently leading the URC, secure another championship.
Glasgow Warriors back Ollie Smith is desperate to taste URC glory after missing out on the 2024 title victory through injury.
The 25-year-old suffered ACL damage in December 2023 and missed the entirety of 2024, which included Glasgow's URC triumph, but returned to action this season and has re-established himself as a key member of Franco Smith's side.
Now, with Warriors top of the URC, Smith wants another shot at the title.
"I missed out on a long period of rugby a couple of seasons ago," he said as Glasgow prepare for a double-header in South Africa against Lions and Stormers.
"For me, just to be playing regular rugby is what I've been missing so much.
"This season has been great for me to string some games together. I feel really confident. It's good to get so many games under the belt. I'm enjoying my rugby. We're playing a good style of rugby which suits the backs.
"You just kind of grow in confidence and grow and grow and grow, which is what I needed really off the back of not playing for a year.
"I want to win things with this club.
"It's something that I've been wanting to do since I was a kid, coming out of school as well. That's the motivation for me now, to be part of something special at this club.
"I believe the squad we have is really special and we can do something special again. We've set ourselves up for this. We're now in such a good position and we deserve to take something away from that."
