Gareth Rees
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gareth Rees (born on 30 June 1967) is a former Canadian international rugby union footballer who played fly-half or full back. He is probably the greatest Canadian rugby player ever. During his international career, he played for Canada 55 times, captaining them on 23 occasions and scoring 487 test points.
Rees was born in Duncan, British Columbia, and educated at St. Michaels University School in Victoria and later at Harrow School in England.
Rees donated one of his rugby boots to be bronzed and used as a trophy to be competed for annually by St. Michaels and Oak Bay High School.
He played club rugby with Castaways, Wasps, Harlequins, Mérignac, Newport, Oxford University, Bedford and the Barbarians.
Rees played in all of the first four Rugby World Cup Finals - 1987, 1991, 1995 and 1999 - retiring after the 1999 finals. His 487 test points remain a Canadian record.
