Malcolm Leith "Micky" Grant (8 November 1927 — 29 October 1992) was a Scottish international rugby union player.[1]

Born in Norwich, Grant was a centre three-quarter with London club Harlequins, where he formed a strong backline with England internationals Ricky Barlett and Phil Davies.[2]

Grant, who had a Scottish father, gained four Scotland caps in intermittent appearances from 1955 to 1957. He debuted as a centre, but played his remaining matches at fly-half.[3]

Edinburgh Academical and Scotland centre Pat Burnet was his brother-in-law.[3]
