This was the moment 15-year-old rugby player Sam Colwill scored a fantastic try using his outstanding footballing skills.
Sam plays full-back for Caerphilly under 15s, and actually bagged a hat-trick in the game against Cwmbran.
The move starts out with Sam haring towards the right wing from well inside his own 22. He's on the far side of the pitch, but is easily spotted in his distinctive scrum-cap like iconic Wales full-back Leigh Halfpenny.
Sam speeds away from two players at the halfway line, with one left scrambling on the floor in a tap-tackle attempt. An opposing player lines up the tackle before the clever 15 sticks his right boot ball and heads infield from the right flank.
Sam sticks on the afterburners to outpace the covering defender before more Cwmbran players rush to the defence. The full-back doesn't have time to pick up so kicks the bouncing ball again, this time with his left foot, with admirable precision.
The ball bounces to the left of the posts with a covering defender appearing much closer to the ball, but Sam's pace is simply too much. The teenager pounces on the ball, touching down to complete a fantastic score.
Sam has been in the district squad for Rhymney Valley, and after training with them on a Monday he goes to Gloucester to be part of the Developmental Player Pathway. He has recently been selected for Gloucester's under 16s Academy next season.
The next Louis Rees-Zammit? There's a long way to go in the young man's potential career but he is a fine example of young Welsh rugby talent.
