But what of the man?
Bill Clement was born in Llanelli in 1915 during the years of the
first World War, and was educated at the local
county
The outbreak of the second World War saw him Commissioned into the
4th Battalion of the WELCH regiment, with whom he took part
in the D-Day landings in June 1944.
One month later, Clement (Now major) was involved in hand to hand
fighting near
Caen
in
Northern France
, in which all but two of the men in his leading platoon
were either killed or wounded. The action became known as the
‘’battle of the bulge’’. Though wounded himself Clement, with
his men, continued to their objective before inflicting considerable
damage to the enemy positions. For his outstanding qualities of
leadership Clement was awarded the military cross.
Bill Clement was demobilised in 1946 and settled into post war
life as an accountant with Brecon County Council.
It ‘’ Twas Autumn and
Sunshine arose on the way to the home of my fathers that welcomed me
back’’
The year 1956 saw him take up the post in
which he became almost without parallel one of rugby's great
administrators.
Under his stewardship Wales were to win nine Championships, three
grand slams, and seven triple crowns, and he played a prominent part in
the re-building of

WELSH ACADEMICALS
|
The Welsh Academicals Rugby Club was established in 1927 in the mining community of Mountain Ash, deep in the Cynon Valley of South Wales. Despite the severe economic depression of the time, great sacrifices were made to allow students to reach their full potential, both academically and also on the rugby field. Aware of the difficulties often faced by university students in playing a high standard of rugby, a school caretaker by the name of Jimmy Austin formed a team of his former pupils and other students, which was christened the 'Welsh Academicals'. At the time, the local Mountain Ash team was a major force in rugby, with Welsh internationals in its line up and a five year unbeaten ground record. But Austin's belief in the ability of the students gave him the courage to challenge the local team to a match that attracted tremendous interest in the area, and to the amazement of all and sundry the students emerged victorious and began a famous tradition in student rugby. For the subsequent 80 seasons the 'Accies', as they have become known, have continued this ethos of providing experiences to Wales' top student rugby players which has assisted their development towards greater honours. information courtesy of Welsh Academicals website www.welshacademicalsrugby.net |

He was awarded an O.B.E in the new years honours list in 1981. Bill Clement died, aged 91, as
the oldest Welsh International in February 2007. His wife pre-deceased
him and he is survived by his daughter. He had become what after all, is
far more important than being a great rugby player, he was a great rugby
man. The game, its spirit and camaraderie were dear to him and he knew
and cherished the fraternity that exists in rugby as perhaps in no other
