Ken Owens (born 3 January 1987 in Carmarthen, Wales) is a Welsh rugby union footballer who currently plays as a hooker for the Llanelli Scarlets regional side in the Magners League. He has made 25 appearances for the Scarlets scoring 5 points (1 Try).
Owens began his professional career at Carmarthen Athletic RFC before moving to UWIC RFC when he began studying at the university in 2005. He has been contracted to the Llanelli Scarlets throughout, and made his Scarlets debut towards the end of the 2005–06 Magners League season in a match against the Glasgow Warriors. Since then, he has left UWIC and begun playing his club rugby for Llanelli RFC. In 2006–07, Owens made 27 appearances for the Llanelli Scarlets, and scored his first try in a Magners League match against Border Reivers. However, in 2007–08, Owens suffered a knee injury, forcing the region to bring in Samoan hooker Mahonri Schwalger on a short-term contract.[1]
