WELSH rugby star Mike Phillips is set to visit Penarth Rugby Club this weekend.

Fresh from taking on New Zealand on Saturday night, Mike will be at the club from 11am on Sunday, November 23.

Former Cardiff Blues, Ospreys and Scarlets scrum half Mike will be following in the footsteps of fellow British Lion Shane Williams, who led a coaching and then a question and answer session at the club earlier this year.

Mike, who now plays for Racing Metro in France, featured in the Penarth Times in July 2012 after he donated his entire kit from a tour to Australia to the Oxfam charity shop on Windsor Road.

All of the kit, which included socks, shorts t-shirts and other kit, raised hundreds of pounds for the charity when it was sold and auctioned off.
