Milton Haig is a New Zealand rugby union coach and former player. He is currently head coach of the Georgian national team that annually competes the European Nations Cup.
Haig, a former half back in his playing career, started playing rugby for his school Southland Boys' High School in 1980, where he was selected for the first XV between 1980 and 1982. He was selected for the New Zealand under 17s side in 1980, but did not take part in any game while in the team. In May 1982, his form for his school saw him be selected for Southland, while still being educated at school. He earned a position in the squad for the encounter against the Japanese national team at Rugby Park Stadium on 4 May 1982. He later continued to play for Southland in the National Provincial Championship, a further 4 times up until 1984. In that time, he was part of the Second Division-South Island winning side in 1982 and 1984. In 1982, he was selected for the New Zealand under 19s team, but like in 1980, he did not take part in any game. He did however play for the New Zealand Marist and New Zealand President's XV teams in 1982.
Between 1985 and 1988, Haig travelled to various countries to gain experience in different cultures; between 1985 and 1987, he represented the Johannesburg Pirates in South Africa, while in between 1985 and 1988 he represented London Scottish, Orrell R.U.F.C. and Richmond in England. He returned to New Zealand in 1989, playing for Bay of Plenty 'B' team, where he captained the team on 3 occasions. He was promoted up to the main side in 1990, playing 48 times, including 4 as captain, between 1990 and 1996.
