An Evening with Sir Gareth Edwards

“I was part of a country which had rugby blood in its veins, and for a short time I was part of its national side which stretched out for the top and reached a pinnacle. I am thankful for that.” - Sir Gareth Edwards

Sir Gareth Edwards is a Welsh former rugby union player who played scrum half and has been described by the BBC as "arguably the greatest player ever to don a Welsh jersey"

In 2003, in a poll of international rugby players conducted by Rugby World magazine, Edwards was declared the greatest player of all time. In 2007, former England player Will Carling published his list of the '50 Greatest Rugby players’ and ranked Edwards the greatest player ever.

Joining Gareth on stage and asking the questions will be his friend and former BBC/S4C rugby commentator Huw Llywelyn Davies.

There will also be a Q&A session in the second half.
