Congratulations to Rhys, who has recently signed for Swansea City Football Club.

Talented footballer Rhys now becomes the second player from the School to reach this level in recent years.  Rhys, who is a sports scholar, has been at Monmouth School for 4 years and is currently in the first year of his GCSE studies. Over the last few years he has been under the tutelage of Andy Beattie and, at the School, gets regular training from ex-professional and Welsh international footballer Steve Jenkins. 

Mark Tamplin, Master in Charge of football coaching at Monmouth School, has been impressed by Rhys’ development over the last few years, adding, “Rhys is a real footballer with noticeable talent; his speed, flair and technical ability are all of the highest level and we wish him well in the future”.
