William John Ould (6 May 1899 — 19 October 1960) was a Welsh international rugby union player.[1]

Biography

Born in Glyncorrwg, Ould was versatile player who was primarily a wing-forward, but could play every position except fullback, while also being a capable goalkicker.[2] He began playing for Cardiff RFC in 1923–24 and in his first season at the club earned his two Wales caps, as a forward against England and Scotland during the 1924 Five Nations.[3] In 1925, Ould rebuffed a £500 offer to sign with rugby league club Leeds.[4]

Ould was a policeman by profession.[5]
