About Mark Jones

Mark Jones was appointed Ospreys head coach in December 2024 with immediate effect, succeeding Toby Booth. A former Wales wing who won 47 caps, he had previously coached at the Scarlets and within the Wales set-up before returning to regional rugby. He leads the Ospreys into 2026-27 at a time when the Welsh Rugby Union is planning to reduce the professional game from four sides to three.
