Stephen Paul Ford (born 15 August 1965 in Cardiff)[1] was a Welsh international rugby union winger.
After being banned from rugby union for an act of professionalism, he was eventually allowed back into the sport and went on to represent the Wales national team.
Steve Ford played rugby as a schoolboy representing Llanrumney High School before joining Rumney RFC.
At the time, Ford claimed that he had only received expenses for his appearances in rugby league, but admitted many years later that he was paid to play the sport.
Although he never played in any of the matches of the tournament, Ford was part of the Wales team that participated in the 1991 Rugby World Cup, hosted by England.
