Keith Maddocks


Keith Maddocks was a Welsh international rugby union player.
Maddocks, a Cowbridge Grammar School product, played rugby at St Luke's College, Exeter, while studying teaching and was a Devon County representative player. He made his first Welsh trials in 1949 while with St Luke's.
A speedy winger, Maddocks spent most of his career with Neath. He was a regular try-scorer and had six in a single match against Ebbw Vale as captain in the 1956–57 season, in which he finished with 27 tries. In the 1957 Five Nations, Maddocks won his solitary Wales cap against England at Cardiff Arms Park and conceded a first-half penalty when he was caught off-side, with Fenwick Allison's successful kick proving to be the only score of the match.
Maddocks was an English teacher at St Boniface's School in Plymouth, Devon.
