Frank William Stewart Malir (4 August 1905 – 22 January 1974) was an English international rugby union player.[1]
Malir was born in British India.[2] His father, a Major, was attached to the Indian Medical Service. He attended Stanley House School (Bridge of Allan), then Woodhouse Grove School, which is where he learned his rugby.[3]
A versatile back, Malir played for the Otley club and became a regular in the Yorkshire representative side from 1927. He won a County Championship with Yorkshire in 1928 and also made his first England trials that year. In 1930, Malir was capped for England in three Five Nations matches, playing as a centre against Wales, Ireland and Scotland. He and Alfred Bateson, who also debuted during the series, were the first Otley players to gain England caps.[4]
Malir's brother Herbert was an England trialist and captained Yorkshire.[3]
