Trevor John Nicholas (7 January 1894 — 14 March 1979) was a Welsh international rugby union player.[1]
Born in Sudbrook, Nicholas was a wing three-quarter and didn't start playing rugby until his time serving in the Army. He was recruited by Cardiff and had appeared only twice for the club when he featured for the national team in 1919, playing a match against the New Zealand Army team, for which Wales awarded caps.[2] After getting married later that season, Nicholas retired from first class rugby.[3]
