Former Ospreys hooker Ifan Phillips is celebrating coaching success with his boyhood team, 18 months after losing his leg and playing career in a motorcycle accident.
The former Wales Under-20 star had to have his right leg amputated above the knee following the serious collision in Swansea in December 2021, but has approached the challenges he has faced since with a remarkably positive attitude. He returned to the gym just months after his life-changing injury, vowing to keep himself fit and involved in rugby.
As well as working as a TV pundit for S4C, the 27-year-old has also moved into coaching, taking up a role as a forwards coach at his junior club Crymych RFC.
