Scott Wilson (born 6 August 2002) is an Irish rugby union player who plays as a prop forward for Ulster Rugby.
From Maghaberry, he was a neighbour of Irish rugby international Stephen Ferris growing up.[3] Wilson was a season-ticket holder at Ulster Rugby from the age of eight years-old.[4] He played rugby at Wallace High School, and was part of the team that shared the Ulster Schools' Cup with The Royal School, Armagh after the final was called off due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] He studied at Queen's University Belfast.[4] He played for Queen's in the second tier of the All Ireland League prior to his call-up to the Ulster first team.[6]
A prop forward,[7] he missed time during the 2022-23 season with three surgeries, one on his elbow and two on his ankle, and a concussion.[4] He made his debut for Ulster Rugby against Munster Rugby on 10 November 2023.[5][4] He scored his first try for Ulster in the last-16 win away to Montpellier Hérault Rugby in the EPCR Challenge Cup on 7 April 2024.[8] He signed a new contract with Ulster in April 2024.[9]
He was a Grand Slam winner with Ireland in the Under-20 Six Nations in 2022.[5][4]
Wilson has been described as a "strong scrummager and ball carrier". He was described, during his debut season, as "one of the most exciting prospects we’ve had in a long time" by Ulster skipper Iain Henderson.[10]
