Aberavon Harlequins RFC is a Welsh rugby union team located in the Sandfields area of Port Talbot, and just a few minutes away from the town centre. In 1955 the team applied for and were successful in gaining membership to the Welsh Rugby Union. Today the club is a feeder club for the Ospreys.[2]
Currently the club has several sides playing under the name. There are two senior sides, a first-year youth team, an under 15's team and an under 12's team. The senior 1st team currently plays in the WRU Division Three South West. The Youth team are also currently playing in the WRU National Youth League Division D.
Two semi-professional/professional players to have played for the club in the past are James Hook and Richard Hibbard, who now both play for the Neath-Swansea Ospreys and have both received full Welsh caps. Hook also recently played a major part in the Welsh World Cup 2007 team before the team was knocked out by Fiji in the group stages.
