- New Lions Origin series with Canterbury launches with Sir Ian McGeechan episode
- View the Lions Origin Map here showing all the origin clubs and schools of Lions players
Of all the Lions to have been rightfully described as legends, one man deserves the mantle more than any other.
That man is Sir Ian McGeechan, the true Lion King of the word’s most famous touring team.
The Scotsman known simply as ‘Mr Lions’ by so many was part of the furniture with Britain and Ireland’s elite for an incredible 35 years, donning the red jersey on two tours as a player and then picking up the reigns as a coach on a further five adventures to the southern hemisphere.
In a new series with Canterbury, we’ll be taking Lions players back to their Lions Origin clubs and schools as they look back at the moment and people that helped shape their Lions journeys.
