Ormond was born in Harthill, Scotland, on 5 August 1949, and migrated with his family to New Zealand in 1961. He became a naturalised New Zealand citizen in 1975.[1] From 1965 to 1976 he played for Blockhouse Bay, but had a brief stint with Barnsley in the Football League, scoring a goal in his only appearance.[2] Later in his career he played for Stop Out and North Shore United before retiring.[3]

Ormond scored a hat-trick on his full All Whites debut in a 4–1 win over New Caledonia on 17 September 1971[4] and ended his international playing career with ten A-international caps and five goals to his credit,[5][6] his final cap an appearance in a 1–0 loss to Australia on 2 March 1976.[4]

Ormond was from good football pedigree: his uncle Willie Ormond represented Scotland at the 1954 FIFA World Cup as a player and the 1974 FIFA World Cup as manager, while his father Bert Ormond and brother Duncan Ormond also represented New Zealand,[7] as did Duncan's daughter Vicki Ormond.[8]
