Ambrose Baker (7 July 1897 - 24 November 1976)〔(Ambrose Baker rugby union player profile ) Scrum.com〕 was a dual-code international rugby player who played rugby union for Neath and rugby league with Oldham. He won five caps for Wales under the rugby union code and then represented his country at rugby league in two matches between 1925 and 1928, and Other Nationalities in 1924. ==Rugby career== Baker came to note as a rugby union player representing South Wales club Neath. It was with Neath that he was first selected to represent Wales, brought in for the encounter with Ireland in the last Welsh match of the 1921 Five Nations Championship. Although Wales won the game 6-0, Baker was not re-selected in 1922 Championship, but the following year he played in all four matches of the 1923 Championship. 1922 had seen Wales win the Five Nations title, but 1923 was dominated by England and Scotland. Wales narrowly lost the opener to England, and this was followed by an 11-8 loss at home to Scotland. On the 24 February, Baker was part of a winning Wales team, as they beat France at Swansea. Although the game was marred by an overly violent French team, Baker managed to score his only international points, scoring one of three Welsh tries. His final rugby union international game was away to Ireland, Wales lost 5-4. In early 1924, Baker turned his back on amateur rugby when he signed for professional rugby league team Oldham, making his debut on 19 January 1924 against Barrow. While with Oldham, Baker won a cap for Other Nationalities in the 23-17 victory over England at Headingley, Leeds on 15 October 1924, and both his international appearances for the Wales rugby league team. His first match was on 7 February 1925 played against England at Workington. He had to wait almost three years for his second and final cap, again versus England, in January 1928.
