Peter Lillington
Peter Murray Lillington (born 1959 in Ely, Cambridgeshire) is a former rugby union player.
The son of former sprinter Alan Lillington, he represented Scotland as a forward on the 1981 Scotland rugby union tour of New Zealand.[1][2] Lillington initially pulled out of the tour due to university examinations clashing with the tour schedule, but was recalled to the Scotland squad in June after exams were over.[3][4]
Lillington competed for Durham University RFC as an undergraduate. He continued his studies at Magdalene College, Cambridge, where he played for Cambridge University R. U. F. C.[5] For his club rugby, Lillington turned out for Harlequins.[6]
