Gregor Hunter (born 26 September 1991)[1] is a Scottish rugby union player.
Hunter joined Edinburgh as an elite development player in the summer of 2011 having come through the Scotland age grades. His time at the club was severely effected by injuries, most seriously ruled out for the whole of the 2013-14 season after injuring his knee playing for his assigned club Hawick RFC in August 2013.
With his gametime hampered he was unable to earn a renewed contract at the end of the season under new coach Alan Solomons, who had only seen him play during a short pre-season, and he was released along with other fly-halves Piers Francis and Harry Leonard in the summer of 2014.
It was announced in August 2014 Hunter was joining Glasgow Warriors under a training contract.
Despite undergoing ACL surgery the former Edinburgh Rugby player will still be involved with the club off the field during his rehab and will also be helping out at Glasgow Hawks.
Hunter made 16 appearances for Edinburgh and has come through the Scotland age-grade ranks. In 2012 he was awarded the Macphail Scholarship and spent four months playing club rugby in New Zealand.
