Rhys Evans (born 1992 in Bridgend, Wales) is a Welsh professional rugby league player for the Warrington Wolves in Super League. His position is centre though he can play wing or fullback. Both him and his twin brother, Ben, a 1.87m - 110kg prop, were noticed by scouts of numerous Super League clubs when representing their secondary school, Brynteg Comprehensive School, in the National Schools Rugby League final on two separate occasions, 2004 and 2005. Although he had been brought up in an area dominated by rugby union and playing junior rugby for Tondu RFC, he and his brother accepted a scholarship up north with Warrington Wolves.
Known for his tremendous footwork, agility and speed, he is thought to have a bright future in the game.
Rhys has stated in a post-match interview after man of the match performance against Leeds Rhinos that he will represent England at international level rather than his country of birth, Wales due to his mother being born in Plymouth, England.
