- FIRST/LAST TRY COMPETITION
The two £50 winners of the ninth competition of the SRC season, on the occasion of the Llandovery v Bridgend Cup game, were Nigel Clarke who benefitted from a try by prop Berian Watkins(3) and Rob Hunt with a try from wing Harri Doel (14).
The next competition will be on Saturday March 8 when Cardiff are the visitors to Church Bank in a league game that kicks off early at 2 pm.
The Scotland v Wales game kicks off at a quarter to five (4 45 pm)
The correct tries competition at the hospitality day on March 1 – forecasting the Llandovery v Bridgend score in terms of tries only – was won by Helen Thomas whose prediction 7-4 was nearest to the final 7-5 result. She wins £46.
- HOSPITALITY – FOR THE DIARY
The end of season Gala Dinner will take place sometime in May 2025, date dependent on Llandovery rugby fortunes.
