Dafydd Lockyer

Who is Dafydd Lockyer?

Dafydd Lockyer is a rugby union player for Pontypridd RFC in the Principality Premiership.

Lockyer first joined up with Ponty from his local Abercwmboi RFC club as a raw youngster, with the Pontypridd Academy in 2001 and then with the senior squad in 2003.

Initially playing on the wing, Lockyer moved to the inside centre position, making a huge impact as a line breaking ball carrier.

An integral part of Ponty’s successful Welsh Cup campaigns of 2005 and 2006, Lockyer earned a worthy reputation as one of the star players at semi-professional level.

A move to Neath RFC followed in the summer of 2007, featuring in the club's double championship winning team, albeit with Lockyer’s time at Neath curtailed by injuries.

Lockyer returns to Pontypridd for the 2009-10 season.
