Coaching Continuity

Plans on and off the pitch are well underway for the 2025/26 season and Pontypridd RFC can confirm the makeup of the coaching and management team that will lead the Club into the new campaign.

We are delighted to confirm that current interim Player-Head Coach Kristian Parker has been appointed in the role on a permanent basis going forward. Kris’ team will include Iestyn Harris who’s role has changed from Assistant Coach to Forwards Coach, and Garyn Smith in the role of attack coach. We are also pleased to report that both Kristian and Garyn will continue to represent the Club on the field in a playing capacity as well.

Kris, Iestyn and Garyn will once again be ably supported by Stuart Rix as Team Manager. We will be announcing more updates for both the rest of the coaching team and the playing squad in the very near future – watch this space…
