Keith Maddocks (16 June 1927 – 5 June 2005) was a Welsh international rugby union player. [1]
Maddocks, a Cowbridge Grammar School product, played rugby at St Luke's College, Exeter, while studying teaching and was a Devon County representative player. He made his first Welsh trials in 1949 while with St Luke's. [2]
A speedy winger, Maddocks spent most of his career with Neath. He was a regular try-scorer and had six in a single match against Ebbw Vale as captain in the 1956–57 season, which he finished with 27 tries. [3] In the 1957 Five Nations, Maddocks won his solitary Wales cap against England at Cardiff Arms Park and conceded a first-half penalty when he was caught off-side, with Fenwick Allison's successful kick proving to be the only score of the match. [4]
Maddocks was an English teacher at St Boniface's School in Plymouth, Devon. [5]
