RGC have bolstered the squad with two new faces for the season ahead.

Lock Beau Williams joins from New Zealand where he has played for Bay Of Plenty and Tauranga Sports.

Karl Martin is from South Africa, and can play Full-Back or Winger. The 22 year old has played for UCT U20s and False Bay.

Head Coach Mark Jones is believes the new additions will benefit the squad for a number of reasons.

“We have maximised the talent from North Wales at the moment in these areas, and with all signings they have to offer more than we have currently in North Wales. Beau is Welsh Qualified as his mother was born in Cardiff and he will come over to give us something extra. We have Robin Williams and Bryn Jones who have done well for us along with the more experienced Andrew Williams, so Beau will add to that mix.

With Afon Bagshaw gaining his Wales 7s contract it means he won’t be as readily available to us, so we needed support for Dion Jones and Karl will give is that.  He is a specialist goal kicker and has that tactical kick base to his game, so offers a foil to Dion’s more running game.

As we have always stated, when we bring players in they must add to what we have, and  we saw with Tiaan helping to develop Danny Cross and Jacob with Sam Rogers then these recruits well help the next line of North Wales players to come through.”
