Sion Parry: The Welshman in the red of Canada

After five years at Sardis Road Parry recently left Pontypridd to sign for Ebbw Vale, who will compete in the inaugural Super Rygbi Cymru competition this season.

In doing this, Parry is following in Kingsley Jones’ career path. They are both back-rowers with Pontypridd, moving to Ebbw Vale, and both now with Canada.

“It’s great to have Kingsley as head coach, he’s great and so familiar compared to how coaches back home can be,” said Parry.

“The analyst for the Canada team is also Welsh, Gwern James from Aberystwyth, so there’s a fair few of us here!”

The Welsh influence doesn’t end there, with current Canada lock Izzak Kelly also playing in Gwent with Pontypool.

Some of the country’s finest ever players, including Gareth Rowlands, Gareth Rees and Morgan Williams, are part of the 500,000 strong Welsh-Canadian community.
