	JPR Williams
		John Peter Rhys Williams, born 1949-03-02 in Cardiff, and known universally as JPR Williams, played rugby for Wales between 1969 and 1981.
		Williams' devastating tackling and fierceness in defense were particularly renowned, but he also displayed great skill, speed, and agility in attack.
		Williams' obvious ability quickly attracted attention and he was consequently first capped by Wales in 1969 aged 19.

		John Peter Rhys Williams (born 2 March 1949 in Cardiff), known universally as JPR Williams, played rugby union for Wales between 1969 and 1981.
		When the call came in the Boet Erasmus Stadium, JPR ran half the length of the pitch and launched himself at Johannes van Heerden, a lock several inches taller and four stone heavier than Williams.
		Williams retired from international rugby union in 1981 and continued his career as an orthopaedic surgeon.

		Williams had represented his country as a sprinter at the 1970 Commonwealth Games but by 1974 had focused solely on his rugby and was into his second season as an international.
		Williams' pace was his prime weapon when he arrived on tour but he soon expanded and adapted his game on the country's hard grounds to near-perfect the chip and chase ploy, and developed a profitable understanding with scrum-half Gareth Edwards in attacking the blindside.
		Williams struck twice in each of those internationals, putting the Lions in command with two first-half tries in the former and putting them out of sight in the latter with two spectacular touchdowns after the break, the first in a link-up with namesake JPR Williams and the second another of his chip and chase efforts.

		JPR, as he became universally known, established himself as the game's outstanding full-back on the Lions tours of 1971 and '74.
		As befitted a junior Wimbledon tennis champion, the London Welsh hero generally returned the ball with interest, timing his take so that he was already moving forward when he fielded a kick, to be instantly on the counter rather than have to look for the safety of touch.
		Williams made 15 appearances on each of his tours, scoring 16 points in 1971 and 12 in 1974, including five tries in all.

		What if JPR Williams had stuck to his first choice of sport and been to tennis what he is to rugby?
		With socks perpetually at half-mast, droopy sideburns and long hair retained long past their sartorial sell-by date, John Peter Rhys Williams was one of the most recognisable figures in sport.
		Awesomely efficient in defence, he was unshakeable under the high ball while those unfortunate enough to experience the JPR tackle tended to stay that way.

		The lay leaders and professional staff of JPR were very saddened to hear the news of the death in July of Ellis Birk, former Chairman of the Institute of Jewish Affairs (IJA), the forerunner of JPR.

	icWales - I'm hooked on James, says JPR
		JPR WILLIAMS last night rejected claims James Hook was too young and inexperienced to start for Wales when they open their bid for Six Nations glory against favourites Ireland.
		JPR warned, "A potential danger I can see is that James is messed around too much and becomes regarded as a jack of all trades and a master of none, a player who is known for playing in a number of positions rather than settling in one."
		JPR believes Carter could become a better player than the greatest outside-half of the lot, Barry John, but reckons Hook has the potential to join him on the top rung.

		Working on the theory that you can't be a very good wine taster without downing the odd glass, J.P.R. Williams perhaps thought the best way to become an orthopaedic surgeon was by exposing his own bones to every conceivable type of fracture on the rugby field.
		He is now Mr Williams, consultant at the Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend, although to the outside world he remains simply J.P.R. Most creatures known by their initials tend to be extra-terrestrials.
		J.P.R. had to leave the field with blood pouring from the gash.
