Sian Jones is another Gwalia Lightning success story, with her debut season earning her a call-up into Wales’ senior squad for the 2024 Six Nations.
Born in Bodelwyddan, Jones was the only girl in her mixed rugby team until the age of 14, a rite of passage which has given her a feistiness typical of her position.
A fine distributor of the ball, Jones made her senior debut in last year’s championship opener against Scotland.
And while it was a memorable occasion for the youngster, one memory that will hurt is a kicking error which cost Wales their final attack of the game.
But what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, right?
Jones showed her mettle in starting the next match against England and has been pushing Keira Bevan for the nine jersey ever since.
Ffion Lewis’ return from injury will add extra competition this year, but Jones rightfully backs her ability.
