Tenby Swifts Under 16s rugby squad lined-up for a pre-match photo shoot on Sunday, proudly wearing their new kit for the season which was provided by team sponsors Ashmole & Co Accountants.
Pictured with the squad is Mr. Bryan Jones, of the Tenby branch of the business.
The squad, coaches and team manager, as well as the parents, are extremely grateful for this generous contribution from Ashmole & Co.
Tenby Swifts ran out convincing winners in the end after a hard-fought match against a spirited Llangwm team.
If the squad focus on their rugby and play to their true potential, then they will no doubt do their club and sponsors proud.
PEMBROKE DOCK
QUINS 6 tries
TENBY U10s 2
Tenby learnt a hard lesson on Sunday from a tough match which they lost but battled well giving their all.
Tenby were in a determined mood, with Murphy tackling well and Poole trying hard to turn over possession, while Tucker and Wainwright were using their force. Tenby were well organised, but after more hits from both sides, a fourth try followed from the Quins.
From a burst of energy, Tenby supporters could sense a try. Palin caught and passed the ball on, Waters caught well, giving Tucker the opportunity to find Wainwright, who fed the ball to Conbeer, who had a clear run of the pitch to touch down.
With the score at 4-1, Tenby's heads picked up after the break.
Thomas, always in the thick of the pack, gave Poole the opportunity to cross for a try.
They may have lost 6-2, but Tenby gave a valiant display, proving themselves excellent rugby players and giving the supporters a fantastic game to watch.
Team: Danny Wainwright, Ben Palin, Ryan Conbeer, Alex Thomas, Callum Joslin, Jack Broadhurst, Jack Tucker, Jac Waters, Tom Murphy, Toby Poole, Milo Stone, Teilo Davies.
NARBERTH U10s 2 tries
TENBY U10s 3
After already playing their hearts out against the Quins, Tenby were soon back on the pitch to face Narberth.
The boys looked muddy, but with fresh spirit they got straight into it, passing well and hungry for a win.
Narberth were one up at the break and there were tired faces all round. The team talk at half-time must have been fantastic as a different Tenby came out following the whistle, focused and determined.
Jack B had a run crashing through players, while Danny, Ben and Alex worked hard tackling, with Ben, Teilo, Toby and Jac getting stuck in too.
Narberth scored again, but Adam started the comeback when he flew over for a try.
Tom then received the ball with excellent handling and side-stepped and pushed his way over for the second. The third try came from Jack B, who steamrollered his way through, pounding over.
Alex was continually fighting for the ball and so was Danny, with support from Milo and Teilo. Narberth started to pick up the pace, but Tenby battled hard and Jack B made a try-saving tackle.
Thanks to Karl for his determination and to the facilities at the Clicketts.
