John Charles Bevan (born 28 October 1950) is a former Welsh international rugby union player, one of two John Bevans who played for Wales during the 1970s. In 1971 he toured New Zealand with the British Lions and at the time played club rugby for Cardiff.
Bevan was a speedy winger (number 11) from Tylorstown South Wales and is chiefly remembered for his role in the Barbarians' victory over New Zealand in 1973. He joined Rugby League shortly afterwards, playing for Warrington. After 13 seasons, he retired from the professional game. He later became sports teacher and rugby coach at Monmouth School.
