The boys played some cracking rugby in the tournament at Pontyberem on Sunday. It was clear that we had been drawn in the" group of death" with Burry Port,Kidwelly and Crymych to keep us company but we battled our way through to the semi-final stages.
First up was a tough game against a well organised Crymych team whose defence was tremendous. We put immense pressure on them,with wave after wave of attack but they held firm until just before the end.Ewan and George J got us the tries to seal a 10-nil win.
Next,we faced a very strong Burry Port side,narrowly losing a close game by two tries to nil.
It all hinged on the final pool game which promised to be a tough encounter against a big and pacy Kidwelly outfit.As all the parents looked on the tension was almost unbearable but we were simply superb,blowing them away three tries to nil with tries from Ewan ,George J and The "dynamo" Joe Phillips.
So,we progressed to the semi-final to play a strong home side (Pontyberem) where we played some great stuff again,but couldn't quite reproduce the efficiency and power from the Kidwelly match. We certainly battled hard,but lost out 15-5, Joe Phillips getting the touchdown again.
Well done lads,it was a great day and we all enjoyed watching you play some wonderful rugby!!!
