Biography

Turnbull was educated at George Watson's College.

Turnbull was one of the first professional sevens players when Graham Shiel named him in his 2011–12 Scotland 7s squad, and he remained a core player with Scotland 7s under Phil Greening on the 2012–13 circuit.

As well as Scotland 7s, Turnbull has representative honours with Scotland A and was also contracted to Edinburgh Rugby prior to signing with the national squad.

The winger scored 151 tries and one conversion – against Argentina on the Gold Coast in 2013 – in 57 World Series events from 2004 to 2014, as well as playing in three Rugby World Cup 7s (Hong Kong 2005, Dubai 2009, Moscow 2013) and two Commonwealth Games (Melbourne 2006 and Delhi 2010).[1]

He retired from playing in 2015.[2]
