Career Details:

Jim Greenlees was another young player who had a brief flirtation with the club at the dawn of the professional era. Signed from Bath College of Higher Education in 1996, Jim joined the Bath Rugby Academy and featured in the feeder sides, only donning the first fifteen jersey on three occasions, each time in a friendly match. The left-winger got off to a good start with the club by crossing for a try on his debut, one of seven Bath scored in the 45-17 victory over Coventry at Coundon Road. Further appearances against Otago Highlanders and Bridgend were the culmination of a short spell with the club for a player whose chances were severely restricted at the time by the presence of regulars Jon Sleightholme and Adedayo Adebayo, two prolific finishers.
