Local footballers Stu Mackay and Mark Gray who currently both play for Merthyr Town Over 55s made their debuts for the Wales Veterans football team under the floodlights at Ystrad Mynach last Saturday.

Both players were instrumental in the 3-1 victory over the English in the friendly international.

As a result, both have been invited to attend further Wales squad sessions in Cardiff and have also been invited to join the national squad again when they fly to Belfast for a Tri Nations tournament hosted by Ireland that once again involves England next February.

Over the years, Mark has represented Wales in football at four different age levels, which is testament to his continued football talent.

Both players are closely associated with Saundersfoot Sports Club and are pleased to be flying the flag for both Pembrokeshire and their club.
