Sebastian has represented Wales at under-16 and under-18 level.[5] He was then signed as part of the Scarlets academy programme[6] and made one competitive appearance for the Scarlets against Sale in the LV Cup.[7]
Sebastian has signed a one-year partnership contract with the Glasgow Warriors which ran until May 2016. It was a full-time professional contract that allowed Sebastian to play for Ayr RFC when not on Warriors duty.[8]
International career[]
Born in Bury St Edmunds, (in Carmarthenshire) Sebastian is eligible to play for Wales, but also for Scotland through his father, who was born and raised in Edinburgh.[9]
In June 2021, Sebastian was called up to the Scotland squad for the summer internationals against England A, Romania and Georgia.[10] He was called up again for the Autumn internationals following the withdrawal of Rory Sutherland due to injury.
