Last weekend, Tenby Swifts Under 13s travelled east to play against Carmarthen Athletic.

On a fresh morning, the young Swifts were made to defend straight from the kick-off, but an excellent defensive effort kept their try line intact.

Once they won clean ball, they attacked with style and scored three unanswered tries to lead at half-time by 17 points to nil.

With the Swifts ringing the changes, the second half turned into a slightly scrappy affair and the home side fought well to score two tries of their own, but the Swifts were able to match them to maintain the gap between the two sides.

Final score was a win for the Swifts by 29 points to 10.

Team pictured and try scorers were Will P, Kyle, Taine, Alex, Tristan, Cairan, Fletcher (1), Dylan (2), Duane-Lee, Cameron, Freddie, Ollie, Max (1), Will A (1), team mascot Iolo, Iori B, Ethan, Joe, Josh and Iorri R.

Tenby U10s

Tenby Swifts Under 10s travelled to sunny Laugharne to face one of the best Carmarthenshire has to offer. Captain for the day was George McDonald.

Right from the kick-off, the team found themselves in a very physical match, with Laugharne pressuring their defence and matching the Swifts in the contact area.

It took a while before the first try came for the Swifts and Largharne were not far behind equalising. Tenby managed to end the first half 4-2.

Coach Jamie and Frankie calmed the Swifts’ nerves and the team marched into the second half more determined. Ollie, Iestyn, Will D and George dominated the rucks with over 10 turnovers between them. Will H and Logan linked well on the wings, while the half-back pairing of Rhys and Jack made sure the backs had plenty of ball. Jayden, Lucas, Tom and Evan carried the ball well, while Tyler gave everything in defence, not letting Laugharne through.

The final whistle blew and Tenby came out on top as 11-2 winners. The score did not do Laugharne justice as not one try for Tenby was easy in this physical encounter.

Tries: Logan (2), Ollie (4), Jayden (2), Rhys B, Iestyn and Evan C

Man of the match (or men) went to Ollie and Bennett. Both put in a huge game defensively and attacking. Well done both.
