In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness a historic moment in the world of rugby as Queen Elizabeth II is introduced to Bridgend's very own Gareth Williams by the Wales/England team. The setting is none other than the National Stadium, where anticipation fills the air for the WRU centenary game against a formidable combined Scotland/Ireland team. The photograph captures a sense of pride and excitement as Captain Steve Fenwick proudly presents Gareth Williams to Her Majesty. With their heads held high and sporting their iconic hats, both players exude confidence and determination. It is evident that this meeting holds great significance for all involved. As history would have it, Wales/England emerged victorious with an impressive 37-33 win over their opponents. And at the heart of this triumph was none other than Gareth Williams himself, who showcased his exceptional talent by scoring two tries during the match. This image not only immortalizes an unforgettable encounter between royalty and sportsmanship but also serves as a testament to the passion and dedication exhibited by these athletes on that fateful day - November 29th, 1980. A true treasure from the 1980s era, this remarkable piece reminds us of how sport can unite nations while creating lasting memories for generations to come.
