The Ospreys announced today that prop, Cam Jones had signed a new deal to remain with the team.
Jones made his debut in the Ospreys’ victory over the Emirates Lions in January, playing a key role in one of the scores as he broke through to eventually set up a try for his namesake.
The 6’4” prop is currently out on loan at the South African side, the Toyota Cheetahs, to gain valuable experience in his development as a young forward.
A product of Gowerton RFC, Jones has made nine appearances for Wales at u20 level and was a try scorer for Wales in the final game against Scotland in the 2021 championship held at Cardiff Arms Park.
Speaking on his new deal, Jones said: “This is my home club and the team where I started my career so it’s great to be staying with the Ospreys. I’ve had a great opportunity to be at the Cheetahs this season with a few of the boys and we’re all really enjoying our time here. I’m looking forward to returning to the Ospreys and putting some of what I’ve learnt here into practice back in Wales.”
Head Coach, Toby Booth, said: “Cam is an another one of our young, homegrown players that we have high hopes for. Being out on loan with the Cheetahs will be a great early experience for his development and we’re looking forward to seeing how he pushes on when returns to us in pre-season.”
