Ross played for Glasgow District in the 1950 Inter-City match against Edinburgh District. The Herald picked out Ross, J. A. Fergusson and J.C. Dawson as Glasgow's best players in an 11 - 3 victory.[2]

He also played in the Scottish Inter-District Championship. He played in the 1954–55 season's match against North and Midlands[3] and in the same season's Inter-City match against Edinburgh District.[4]
