My Story
Hey there, I'm Iwan. If you're wondering what drives me, it's my unyielding passion for sports—specifically, football and rugby. I fell in love with football as a youngster, training at academies like Builth Wells, Rhayader, Newtown Academy, Aberystwyth, Merthyr, and Shrewsbury Development. Each academy shaped me into the player I am today, instilling in me a blend of skills and techniques. As I transitioned into senior football, I played for various clubs including Montgomery FC, Llandrindod Wells, Caersws, Hereford Pegasus, and currently, Merthyr Town FC. Each club has been a different chapter in my journey, and I've cherished every game, every minute on the field. On the rugby side of things, I started off at Builth Wells, earning spots in South Powys District and Cardiff Blues age-grade teams. I've grown into a senior player, currently donning the jersey for Hereford RFC and even catching a trial with Llandovery RFC. In rugby, I'm a 'back-three player,' known for my incredible speed and hard ball-carrying skills. Whether I'm evading tackles in football or piercing through rugby lines, I give it my all. So, that's me in a nutshell—always pushing the boundaries and excited for what's to come. Cheers!
