Richard Lloyd "Ricky" Evans (born 23 June 1960) is a former Welsh international rugby union player.
Born in Aberporth Cardigan in West Wales in 1960, Ricky Evans played most of his club rugby for Llanelli RFC playing in the victorious side which beat the touring Wallabies who were then World Champions.
In 1994 he played in the Five Nations winning Welsh team although losing to England in the final game at Twickenham a try was on the cards for Ricky, however a desperate tap tackle by Dewi Morris prevented a certain score, however retaining the ball and making it available Nigel Walker scored the vital try in the corner to reduce the points difference and secure the title for Wales.
Despite a serious ankle injury sustained in the Five Nations match against France in Paris in January 1995, he recovered fitness and went on to play in the 1995 World Cup against New Zealand and Ireland.
Injury cut short what was a promising career at international level which may well have resulted in selection for the British & Irish Lions 1997 squad to tour South Africa.
