url =Harry Uzzell (1883–1960) was a
Wales internationalrugby union player. He played club rugby predominantly for Newport and played county rugby for Gloucestershire. A fruiterer by trade he would later become landlord of the Tredegar Arms in Bassaleg.Uzzell spent the majority of his rugby career with Newport and captained them during the 1913/14 season. In 1912 he was part of the Swansea team that beat the touring South Africans.
International career
Uzzell made his debut for Wales on 20 January 1912 against England. He would represent his country on 15 occasions in total, captaining his country four times. In one game against France at St Helen's,
Swansea , Uzzell scored two tries the only points he collected for his country. It is probablly true that Uzzell would have been capped far more but for the intervention of the First World War.
