FORMER Welsh rugby captain and one-time record cap holder Gareth Llewellyn is the new Head Coach of Thornbury Rugby Club.

The former lock, who is one of a select few to play international rugby in three decades, takes over from Tony Down for the 2009/10 season.

He played for Llanharan, Neath, Harlequins, Ospreys, Narbonne and Bristol as well as the Barbarians before retiring in 2007/08 and working as assistant coach at Tonmawr where last season the Port Talbot club were runners up in Division 1 West.
