Albert Jenkins (rugby union)
Albert Jenkins (11 March 1895 – 7 October 1953) was an international rugby player for Wales and played club rugby for Llanelli RFC between 1919 and 1928. Jenkins was one of the greatest backs to have played for Llanelli and is compared to later Scarlet heroes Lewis Jones and Phil Bennett.〔Thomas (1979), pg 60.〕 Jenkins was a strong tackler and was an extremely fast runner from a standing start. He was also an excellent kicker with either foot and could punt the ball half the length of the pitch. He was sometimes criticised for his decision making on the field, and wasn't at his best away from Stradey Park.〔
Jenkins is seen as on of Llanelli's greatest players but unfortunately for Jenkins he was at his peak when Welsh rugby was at one of its worst points in its history.
==Club career==
Jenkins played for Llanelli juniors but on the outbreak of World War I Jenkins joined the British Army and served in France in the 38th Welsh Regiment. On his return in 1919, Jenkins rejoined Llanelli and gained a position in the senior team. He would later play for Llanelli against the New Zealand All Blacks, losing in 1924, but beating them 3-0 in 1926.
