Whitland U9s 2

Tenby 0 

On a glorious Easter Sunday morning, the boys travelled down to Tenby. It started out as a hard fought game, with some good rucking from both teams.

Whitland were keeping Tenby from scoring with some hard tackling from William Emmanuel and some good long passes from Che Thomas to James Thomas on the wing.

The first try was scored by Aled Davies when, after a good sprint and some side-stepping, he managed to get the ball down right in the corner.

All the Whitland boys played well as a team, with fast breakaway runs coming from Lewis, Iwan, Rhodri and Blue.

The next try came from Sebastian, who again crossed the oine after a long sprint.

Whitland U10s

After an amazing match, which lasted over threequarters-of-an-hour, an exhausted Whitland eventually won through with a golden try.

They then immediately had to play in the final and lost out to Crymych, but were nevertheless congratulated by all the other teams - from as far afield as Cardiff - as being the best team of the tournament.

Team fielded: Daniel Evans, Morgan Short, Jack Richards, Gino Setaro, Jack Flanagan, Scott Lloyd, Sam Davies, Lewis Jones, William Lewis, Lee, Charlie Williams and Rhodri Rees.
