An outstanding year of Welsh sporting achievement has been marked in the New Year’s Honours list.
Football success in Euro 2016 sees manager Chris Coleman receive an OBE, and former FAW president Trefor Lloyd Hughes handed an MBE.
Gold-winning Olympians and Paralympians have been honoured for their exploits in Rio.
Cyclists Owain Doull and Elinor Barker and sailor Hannah Mills have been given MBEs.
Wales’ Paralympians have been recognised too with javelin-thrower Hollie Arnold, swimmer Aaron Moores and table-tennis player Rob Davies awarded MBEs after winning gold in Rio in the summer, along with Swansea-based boccia player David Smith.
Smith, from Hampshire, has two Olympic golds in boccia, a sport similar to bowls.
Another long-serving administrator to be appointed MBE is Bill Owen, who served as chairman and president of Welsh Cycling for more than 20 years.
Secretary of State for Wales Alun Cairns offered his congratulations to Coleman, who led Wales to the semi-finals of Euro 2016.
