Allan Glen’s RFC is heartbroken to announce the sudden passing of Adam McManus, a promising young player who had just completed his first season with the club’s senior team. His untimely loss has left his family, friends, teammates, and the wider rugby community in deep mourning.
Adam was much more than a rugby player. He was a vibrant, energetic presence whose love for the sport and dedication to his team inspired everyone around him. Coaches and teammates remember his unwavering commitment, his sportsmanship, and the enthusiasm he brought to every training session and match. Adam’s positive energy and passion left an enduring mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him, and his absence is profoundly felt across the club.
In honor of Adam, Allan Glen’s RFC and his teammates will pay tribute before tomorrow’s 3:00 PM kick-off at The Bearyards. Members of the community are welcome to join and celebrate the life of a young man who gave so much to the team, both on and off the field. This gathering offers an opportunity for the club, friends, and family to come together in remembrance, support, and solidarity.
The club extends its deepest condolences to Adam’s family during this unimaginable time. The thoughts, prayers, and support of the community are with them as they navigate their grief.
Although Adam’s time with us was tragically short, his legacy will live on in the hearts of his teammates, friends, and all who were touched by his life. His courage, dedication, and kindness exemplified the true spirit of rugby and the power of community. Adam McManus will be dearly missed, fondly remembered, and forever celebrated by everyone at Allan Glen’s RFC.
