Wales will make use of World Rugby's new rules on switching allegiance for the first time when former England international Carys Williams-Morris makes her Wales international debut this weekend.
The 28-year-old centre is set to realise her Welsh rugby dream when she starts in the World Cup warm-up against Canada in Nova Scotia on Saturday, August 27 (9pm kick-off UK time, live streamed by S4C), having linked up with Ioan Cunningham's training squad in July.
It comes an ocean apart and a decade on from when she first played international rugby, in the white shirt of England U20s against France in 2012. Six years later she made her senior England debut and in 2019 she played for the first time in the Six Nations – which just happened to be against Wales, who her own family - dad Wyn Williams, from Bala, and mum Bethan, from Llandderfel - were supporting.
