Kenneth Carmichael Fyfe (14 April 1914 – 29 January 1974) was a Scottish rugby union player.
Career[edit | edit source]
He was born in Karachi (now Pakistan) and died in Johannesburg, South Africa.[1] His mother was English and his father was the Scottish international association football player John Fyfe,[2] with his heritage making him eligible for the Scotland national rugby union team – he gained nine caps between 1933 and 1939 including two Calcutta Cup wins over England at Murrayfield, and scored the winning try in the 1933 fixture.[1][3] He attended the University of Cambridge and counted Sale among his club sides.[4]
He also played cricket, and represented the Europeans cricket team in India during the 1937/38 season.[5]
