One of Sean’s career coaching highlights came in 2009 when he coached the Wales National Team on the unbeaten tour to Canada & USA. The Scotland and Romanian National Teams have more recently recruited Sean as a coaching consultant.

His passion for the game and an early playing career injury whilst playing for his beloved Aberavon RFC against South Africa in 1994, has seen him throw himself into a professional career in the sport, starting as a sports lecturer at Coleg Sir Gar, where he wrote several educational programmes including the first of it’s kind ‘Rugby Studies’ for BTEC in 1999. His first cohort of students included none other than Lions prop Adam Jones!
