Gareth Leslie "Gaz" Holgate is a Welsh-born
Philippine international rugby union player. Born in St Asaph, Denbighshire,
Holgate currently plays for Japanese club Kyuden Voltex.
Born in St Asaph, Denbighshire, to a Filipina mother and an
English father, Holgate grew up in Gwaenysgor, near Prestatyn, and attended
Rydal Penrhos in Colwyn Bay. While also playing for the school team, he began
his rugby career with Rhyl and District RFC and played for them until he moved
to Cardiff in 2007 to study at UWIC.
While at UWIC, Holgate played for the university rugby team,
UWIC RFC, in the WRU Division One East. After a short time with UWIC, Holgate
received a call-up to the Philippines rugby sevens team for the 2007 SEA Games
in December 2007, having qualified by virtue of his mother's Filipina heritage.
The team reached the final, but lost 29–14 to the hosts, Thailand.
This was soon followed by appearances for the Philippines
national XV in the inaugural Asian Five Nations tournament in July 2008; he
scored a try in the team's 101–0 win over Brunei and also played in a 20–8 win
over Guam as the Philippines won the Pacific-Asia division.
He played again in the 2009 Asian Five Nations, but suffered
an ankle injury in the Division 3 semi-final against Iran that kept him out of
the 25–0 win over Guam in the final.
The 2010 Asian Five Nations saw Holgate
compete for the Philippines in Division II. He played on the wing in the 53–33
semi-final win over Thailand, before the Philippines went on to beat the hosts,
India, 34–12 in the final to secure promotion to Division I.
