W.H. 'BILL' CLEMENT O.B.E., M.C., T.D., J.P

Llanelli, Wales & the British Lions, Welsh Rugby Union secretary 1956 - 1981 

BILL CLEMENT 1915-2007  

A tribute by Alan Hughes

L. K. OBRIEN, Chief Cashier at the bank of England, I knew his name well! For his rather stark and unwieldy signature appeared in my young days on the back of every bank note that came our way. Ten bob, quid, occasional fiver (were there others?).
                   To anybody in the Principality's rugby public however, there was another, perhaps more meaningful signature that became synonymous with the part the game played in their lives.

It was that of W. H Clement, whose written name was printed on every international ticket for over a quarter of a century, in his capacity as Secretary of the Welsh Rugby Union. more.............

                    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 School . He was a fast and elusive three-quarter, before winning the first of six international caps for Wales against England in 1937, and touring South Africa with the 1938 British Lions.        

                   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 Cardiff Arms Park. more...............

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.

Bill Clement (handling paper, neat as rugby balls)

Came he whence from Bennettstown, some call it Felinfoel

A very fine player long left the field, behind a desk to toil

Llanelli, Wales South African Lion, then came an injured knee 

Fortunately perhaps, for the Welsh RU, the path of Secret'ry

A winger most unusual with his manual dexterity 

Playing on left or right, a splendid sight to see

A soldier of distinction, this Major with MC

Twice wounded in the conflict, the untold gallantry

Now handling all the paperwork, as neat as Rugby balls

Always polite and courteous, despite the many calls

Thank you Mr Clement, for your application to the task

And as for my OWN application - one Ticket all I ask!             

The above poem appeared in the book 'And The Tanker Spent A Comfortable Night' by Tom Bellion. A book of poems relating to Welsh rugby in the 1970s, illustrated by the legendary Gren.

       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 sport.
