🏉 Big news in Welsh rugby! Rising star Carwyn Leggatt-Jones was pulled out of school last week to train with the Scarlets ahead of their European Champions Cup match against Northampton Saints. At just 18 years old, Leggatt-Jones is proving why he’s considered one of Wales’ most promising talents.
There were doubts about Wales international Sam Costelow’s readiness for the match due to his recent ankle injury. Though Costelow ultimately took the field and dazzled with a try and an assist, Carwyn was on standby and ready to step up. It speaks volumes about the confidence Scarlets’ interim director of rugby Nigel Davies has in this young talent! 🏆
After the match, Davies praised his young squad, highlighting the performances of talents like Eddie James and Jac Davies. It’s clear the future is bright, with promising players like Carwyn Leggatt-Jones ready to seize their chance in the spotlight. 🌟
Carwyn’s journey is impressive—he’s been crucial in Llandovery College’s back-to-back victories in Wales Schools and Colleges Rugby titles and has earned recognition in the U18s Six Nations Festival. Despite tempting offers from England, Carwyn is sticking with the Scarlets, crediting the team for believing in him early on.
As Davies looks to nurture the next generation of rugby stars, expect to see opportunities for young players like Carwyn to shine on the biggest stage. 🌟
Stay tuned for more updates on these exciting young talents taking Welsh rugby by storm! 🏉🔥
