==Controversy==
==Controversy==
The naming of the cup for Prince William has caused considerable controversy in [[Wales]]. Many people called on the WRU to rename the trophy in honour of Welsh international rugby star [[Ray Gravell]], who died on 31 October 2007.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_west/7078526.stm BBC Wales South West]</ref> During a tribute to Gravell at the inaugural match the stadium announcer asked the crowd to remember Ray as 'gwir dywysog Cymru', a true prince of Wales. Gravell's funeral was attended by over 10,000 people, including [[Rhodri Morgan]], First Minister of Wales. On-line petitions were launched. The matter was raised in the [[National Assembly for Wales]] by [[Helen Mary Jones]] AM backed by a number of other AMs<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.assemblywales.org/bus-home/bus-chamber/bus-chamber-third-assembly-rop.htm?act=dis&id=64665&ds=11%2F2007 |title=Welsh Assembly session 06.11.07 |access-date=5 September 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120905153952/http://www.assemblywales.org/bus-home/bus-chamber/bus-chamber-third-assembly-rop.htm?act=dis&id=64665&ds=11%2F2007 |archive-date=5 September 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref> including [[Bethan Jenkins]].<ref>[http://bethanjenkins.blogspot.com/2007/11/renaming-prince-william-cup-to-ray.html Bethan Jenkins AM on Blogspot]</ref> Amongst MPs, Labour MP [[Paul Flynn (politician)|Paul Flynn]] and Plaid's [[Adam Price]] MP called for the WRU to honour Ray Gravell as a patriotic Welshman rather than Prince William, regarded by many in Wales as an Englishman who openly supports the [[England]] [[England national rugby union team|rugby]] and [[England national football team|football]] teams.<ref>[http://www.adampriceblog.org.uk/adam-calls-rename-cup Adam Price MP calls on WRU to rename cup] {{webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20071111031436/http://www.adampriceblog.org.uk/adam-calls-rename-cup |date=11 November 2007 }}</ref>

The Prince William Cup was created in 2007 by the Welsh Rugby Union and celebrates 100 years of rugby union history between Wales and South Africa. It is named after the Vice Royal Patron of the WRU, the Prince of Wales, who presented the cup, at the inaugural match, held at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on 24 November 2007.

Trophy

[edit]

The trophy was chosen by Prince William, from three different designs presented by specialist jewellers. Mari Thomas from Llanelli and Nicola Palterman from Neath won the commission to create the cup.[1] The pair, who have exhibited their jewellery around the world from London to New York City, claim the creation of the 55 cm high, 1.5 mm gauge trophy as their biggest and most elaborate creation to date. The Prince William Cup is inspired by the landscapes of South Africa and Wales.[1] The trophy is silver lined with 23 carat gold plate and is cone shaped tapering from 16 cm at the rim to 8 cm at its base.[2] The trophy is the ninth of its type in world rugby and was presented to the winner of the first clash by Prince William himself.[3]

Controversy

[edit]

The naming of the cup after Prince William has caused controversy in Wales. Opponents to the name called on the WRU to rename the trophy in honour of Welsh international rugby star Ray Gravell, who died on 31 October 2007.[4] During a tribute to Gravell at the inaugural match the stadium announcer asked the crowd to remember Ray as 'gwir dywysog Cymru', a true prince of Wales. Gravell's funeral was attended by over 10,000 people, including Rhodri Morgan, First Minister of Wales. Following The Cambrian, calling for the cup to be renamed in tribute to Gravell, it was raised in the National Assembly for Wales[5] by Plaid Cymru AM Bethan Jenkins, although the Welsh Government stated it has no view nor responsibility over the issue.[6] Amongst MPs, Labour MP Paul Flynn and Plaid's Adam Price MP also called for the WRU to honour Ray Gravell, as did an online petition.[4][7]
