Club career

Rees attended Ysgol Bro Dinefwr, and came through the ranks of Llandeilo RFC.[2] Rees was named in the Scarlets first team squad ahead of the 2020–21 season.[3] Originally named to make a possible debut off the bench along with fellow academy product Kemsley Mathias in the EPCR Challenge Cup match against Toulon on 18 December 2020, Rees was forced to wait, as the match was called off due to COVID-19 cases.[4][5] He finally made his Scarlets debut in Round 1 of the Pro14 Rainbow Cup against the Шаблон:Rut, scoring a try.[6] He made two further appearances during the tournament, coming off the bench against Cardiff and Edinburgh.

On 21 April 2023, it was announced that Rees would depart the Scarlets at the end of the season.[10] He made a final appearance for the Scarlets, his first European match, against Glasgow on 29 April 2023.[11]

Rees joined Ampthill for the 2023–24 season.[12]
