Angus Fraser has extended his contract at Glasgow Warriors.
The hooker has committed his future to the Scotstoun side after putting pen to paper on fresh terms with his first professional club.
Fraser has enjoyed a breakthrough season under Franco Smith in the 2023/24 campaign to date. He made his debut for Warriors in December 2022 in a Challenge Cup victory at Bath.
The 24-year-old marked his first professional start in style, crossing for the bonus-point try in a 43-25 victory over Leinster in round one of the BKT URC at Scotstoun.
He said: “It means the world to me. “I love this club and the opportunities for development I’ve had here have been brilliant.
"To have the chance to keep developing under Franco and the coaches here is exactly what I feel like I need at this stage in my career.
“Being in the squad here, you learn so much from those around you. We’ve got a superb group of hookers here, and to have the chance to come in and learn from a pack full of international-calibre players is priceless for me.
“I’ve really enjoyed the opportunities I’ve had to get out and get stuck in on game day, too, and I just want to keep putting my hand up for selection. I’m loving my rugby right now and I just want to keep on developing.”

Head Coach Smith added: “We’re excited to continue to work with Angus, as we continue to help him develop into the best version of himself on and off the field.
“He has performed well each time he has been selected and works closely with both his team-mates and coaches to seek to improve in all aspects of his game.
“We know how proud Angus is to represent this club and we look forward to seeing him add to his tally of appearances across the next couple of seasons.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
