Andy Robinson's side sit fourth in the Magners League

Edinburgh boss Andy Robinson has handed professional contracts to three National Academy players.

Boroughmuir hooker Sean Crombie, prop Kyle Traynor of Watsonians and lock forward Steven Turnbull of Heriots are the men to step up.

It comes after the trio impressed the head coach with their enthusiasm and willingness to learn.

"Their arrivals add further vitality to an already young and vibrant squad," Robinson said.
