Congratulations to young Tenby footballer Dylan Rees who has just completed his first year at Cardiff City FC Academy.

Thirteen-year-old Dylan (pictured) is one of only two boys in the whole of Pembrokeshire who is currently at the club.

He has played football since he was seven-years-old with Tenby United, Pembrokeshire County, Cardiff City's development squad, and now the Cardiff City academy. 

Dylan has also been training with the Welsh development squad which is ongoing. 

The budding Bluebird has to travel twice a week to Cardiff for training which entails a four hour round trip, with a two hour training session, and has games on a Sunday which could be as far away as Southampton or at home for the club in Cardiff.  

Although Dylan has support from Layton and Co, his mum and dad and both sets of grandparents, anyone wishing to offer sponsorship towards his development can contact his parents, Alex and Nicky, on (01834) 844966.
