Dai Young (born 26 July 1967) is a Welsh rugby union coach and former player in both rugby codes. A prop, he won 51 caps for Wales in rugby union between 1987 and 2002 and three caps for the British and Irish Lions, and he toured with the Lions in 1989, 1997 and 2001, one of only two players to tour in three separate decades. Born in Aberdare, he played club rugby union for Swansea and Cardiff, then moved to rugby league in 1990 when he transferred to Leeds for a then world record of 150,000 pounds, later played for Salford, and won 14 caps for Wales, whom he captained in the 1995 Rugby League World Cup. He returned to union in 1996. As a coach he led Cardiff Blues and was director of rugby at Wasps from 2011 to 2020.
