Craig Gillies was born in Paisley and grew up in Tiverton, Devon.

After spells with Richmond and Llanelli, Gillies signed for Warriors in the summer of 2002.

Craig was a key part of the unbeaten National Division One promotion winning team of 2003–04 and now is a key part of the team, playing in the Guinness Premiership.

Gillies, who played for England A in 1998, has experience in both National Division One and the Premiership with Warriors and signed a new three year contract with the club during 2008.
