Boy, 15, who's already 6ft 5in may have to quit rugby as no boots fit his size 16 feet

A 15-year-old lad who is already 6ft 5in tall wants to chase the promise of rugby stardom - but might have to give it all up as he can’t find boots to fit his size 16 feet.

Elliot Beavan only turned 15 in December, but the teen from Cwmbran, South Wales, already towers above most Brits.

At 6’5 he has recently outgrown his size 15 rugby boots and now mum Sophie Beavan is worried he might have to give up the sport if they can’t find big enough boots, reports Wales Online.
