Alyn Wallace
Many of you will have heard the incredibly sad news of the passing of Alyn Wallace.
Alyn, originally from Pontypridd spoke to many PF clubs and his talks were a treat. Always memorable and awe inspiring. Such dedication to a craft is rare. We cannot believe he has gone at such a young age. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.
His family has released the following statement:
