Lockerbie's three time Olympian David Murdoch has been named British Curling's national coach.

The 40-year-old enjoyed a highly successful curling career guiding Great Britain to a silver medal at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi and won numerous honours representing Scotland.

He turned his attention to full-time coaching last year and his new role will see him guide Britain's next generation of programme curlers towards the 2022 Olympics in Beijing.
