Life

Rees was born in Llandovery, Carmarthenshire, Wales. He was educated at Llandovery College and Jesus College, Oxford (graduating in 1894) and was the first Welshman to captain Oxford University RFC. He introduced the four three quarters system, playing at centre-three-quarter. He played for Cardiff, the Barbarians, the London Welsh, Richmond, Blackheath and Llanelli.[1] He played for the Welsh national side on three occasions in the Home Nations Championship. His debut was on 6 February 1892 against Scotland.[2] His other two appearances were against England, once in 1893 (the season when Wales first won the Triple Crown) and again in 1894.[1][2]

Rees taught at Sherborne School, Rossall School and Giggleswick School, before spending the last thirty years of his life working as a teacher in India. He died on 30 August 1932.[1]
