Jenkins' role is confirmed by WRU
Western Mail
|October 18, 2025
THE Welsh Rugby Union have confirmed what role Neil Jenkins will play after he was left at home for the summer tour of Japan.
-
The former fly-half, who ended his career as Wales' highest-ever points scorer in Test rugby, has been a constant in the national team's coaching staff for a number of years.
However, he was not involved this summer - with Leigh Halfpenny looking after the kicking coaching in Japan.
With the WRU confirming that former Wales fly-half Rhys Patchell will take on the skills coach role this autumn on an interim basis, clarity has been offered on Jenkins' position.
