Oli Kebble, born on June 18, 1992, is a Scottish international rugby union player who currently plays for the Glasgow Warriors in the Pro14. He primarily plays as a prop and has had a successful career in both Super Rugby and the Pro14.

Kebble's rugby journey began in South Africa, where he played for Western Province at the U21 level and helped them win the Under-21 Provincial Championship in 2013. He made his debut for the Western Province senior team in the Vodacom Cup competition in 2012 and later became a key member of the Stormers' front row in Super Rugby.

In 2012, Kebble was part of the South African Junior World Championship-winning side. He made his Super Rugby debut in 2014 and went on to make 34 appearances over three seasons. Known for his ball-carrying ability and scrummaging skills, Kebble made a significant impact during his time with the Stormers.

In February 2017, Kebble signed a two-year deal with the Glasgow Warriors in the Pro14, joining them for the 2017-18 season. He made his debut for the Warriors against Connacht in September 2017. Since joining Glasgow, Kebble has been a consistent performer and has made 39 appearances for the club as of December 2019.

Kebble's performances caught the attention of the Scottish national team selectors, and in October 2020, he earned his first call-up to represent Scotland. He made his debut as a substitute against Georgia and then made his Guinness Six Nations debut against Wales, contributing to Scotland's first win in Wales since 2002.

Educated at Bishops and Dulwich College, Kebble has a strong rugby pedigree as the son of former Springbok prop, Guy Kebble, who played Test rugby in 1993/94. He has showcased his skills on both sides of the scrum and has proven to be a valuable asset for Glasgow Warriors and the Scottish national team.
