Everyone at Nottingham Rugby would like to congratulate Ellis Mee on his first call up to the Welsh national team ahead of the 2025 Guinness Six Nations.

Ellis made 22 appearances for the Archers in the 23/24 season, scoring 7 tries, before securing his move to Scarlets over the summer.

Since moving to Scarlets, Ellis has been really impressive both in the United Rugby Championship and the European Challenge Cup, making 11 appearances and scoring 2 tries so far this season.

Dave Ross, Nottingham Rugby backs coach and NTU head coach, quoted “we’re all so pleased for Ellis, he fully deserves this opportunity.”

“He was extremely impressive with Nottingham last season, winning over all the fans and the majority of our end of season awards – deservedly.”

The 2025 Guinness Six Nations Championship officially opens on Friday, January 31 as Wales face France away in Paris. This is followed by a trip to Rome to play Italy the following Saturday.

Wales then face Ireland in round three, their first home fixture of the Championship. Two weeks’ later Wales travel to Edinburgh for a match against Scotland, before concluding the 2025 edition of the competition at home at Principality Stadium against England on Saturday 15 March.
