Will Harries (born 30 March 1987) is a Wales international rugby union player who retired from professional rugby leaving Ealing in 2019. He has also played for the Northampton Saints, Bedford Blues (on loan) and the Newport Gwent Dragons.

Harries was educated at The Cathedral School, Llandaff and Millfield, a school known for its rugby tradition.[1] He appeared in a LV Cup game against the Saracens for the Dragons in January 2010, in which he scored 2 tries and was named Man-of-the-Match. He left Newport Gwent Dragons at the end of the 2013–14 season and joined up with the Welsh sevens squad that took part in the XX Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

In May 2010 he was added to the Wales national rugby union team standby list for the summer matches and subsequently called into the full squad due to injury to Shane Williams.[2] He made his international debut versus New Zealand in Hamilton on 26 June 2010. Following on from his debut, he made his first international start on the wing against Australia in the Principality stadium during the Autumn internationals. Soon after this he snapped his ACL before coming back to earn his final Welsh cap against the Barbarians in the Principality stadium.

He has also been selected for the Wales national rugby sevens team squad.

Following his departure from the Dragons, and after finishing the Commonwealth Games, Harries joined Championship team Ealing Trailfinders, where he spent five seasons.[3] In 2019, he retired from professional rugby and alongside work, joined semi professional Chinnor RFC.[4]
