Doddie Weir Cup
The Doddie Weir Cup (Welsh: Cwpan Doddie Weir) is a perpetual rugby union trophy established in 2018 and contested between Scotland and Wales. The cup is named after the former Scotland international lock Doddie Weir who was diagnosed with motor neuron disease in 2016 (he died from the disease in 2022, aged 52), and was created to raise awareness of the illness.
