Rugby career
Phillips, a swift and orthodox player, made his Welsh international debut against England as part of Billy Bancroft's Triple Crown winning team in 1900. He played in every single game in the 1900 Home Nations Championship alongside clubmate Llewellyn Lloyd, but the next season played his fourth and final game in a defeat to Scotland. Phillips may have played more matches but for a serious knee injury.

In 1907 and 1912 he was Welsh Amateur Golfing Champion.
During World War I he served as a Sergeant in the Royal Welch Fusiliers having refused a commission. He was killed in action at Cambrai, on 14 March 1916.
