Biography

Born in Belfast, Craig gained two Ireland caps as a 21-year old Queen's University student, playing fullback for matches against Scotland at Murrayfield and Wales at Swansea. He also played in Belfast for North of Ireland and later joined Armagh, kicking the winning penalty goal in the 1947 Ulster Towns Cup final against Bangor.
Craig was a Presbyterian minister and served as a moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. His church commitments limited his promising cricket career with Woodvale as he was unable to play on Sundays.
