“With every game he has looked more assured and, from our point of view, he will primarily be considered a winger who can cover the centre position. 

"We have others in our squad that we view more as centre/wings but I’m sure over the course of the summer Kyle will get the opportunity to show what he can do in both positions.” 

Former Kelvinside Academy pupil, Cummings (22) earned his first professional contract in 2016, having come through the Fosroc Scottish Rugby Academy system.  He represented Scotland throughout the age-grades, captaining the U20 side in the 2015 World Championships in Manchester. 

Steyn (25) has enjoyed a rapid rise in the past 12 months, first impressing for Scotland 7s in six world series tournaments before forcing his way into Glasgow Warriors’ backline, long before the one-year deal he signed for the 2019/20 season even started. 

A former student at the University of Stellenbosch, South African-born Steyn (whose mother Gillian is from Glasgow) played in the Currie Cup for the Griquas and was named as the side’s captain for their 2018 campaign before joining up with the sevens side. 

The inclusion of Cummings and Steyn takes the Glasgow Warriors contribution to the extended squad to 19, all of whom will now be given time off to rest before checking into camp next month.
