James Blanch Lees (11 August 1919 â 22 August 2004) was a Scottish international rugby union player.
Raised in Selkirk, Lees was a back-forward forward, who had a good dribble kick and excelled in line-outs. He played his rugby with Gala in the Scottish Borders, while during his wartime service competed for the Army. In 1947 and 1948, Lees gained five Scotland caps, including a Calcutta Cup win over England, before retiring from the sport in 1952.
