Will Matthews (rugby player)
- Will Matthews (rugby player)
Will Matthews (born 14 January 1985 in Oxford) is rugby union footballer, who plays at flanker or number eight for Pertemp Bees and England Sevens.
Will went to Millfield on a football scholarship, actually being on the books at Oxford United before taking up rugby. Spotted by an England coach doing a handling session at the school, he was promptly invited to Gloucester, where he was signed.
He studies at the University of Gloucestershire, doing a degree part time.
He posed in the 2006 Dieux du Stade calendar, organized by the Stade Français; one of only a few non-French players to do so.
