Rhigos 10's put up a brave fight
Rhigos under 10's lost at home this weekend in a desperate struggle
against Nantyfyllon. With key players missing from the squad Rhigos
lacked the strength to overcome to a very large Nanty team. However,
the Rhigos 10's didn't lose heart and came back time and time again,
challenging Nanty every step of the way. Good team work from the
forwards saw Callum Thomas drive forward and Nanty were on the back
foot, they got it away to the wings and saw Rhigos's only try from
Faith Jones. She converted and the final score was Rhigos 7 Nanty 30. MAN
OF THE MATCH GOES TO CALUM ROSSITTER

Rhigos minis win on the Gnoll
Rhigos under 8's won on the Gnoll this weekend, against a very strong
team from Taibach. The Rhigos youngsters came out strong and scored
three tries within the first half, but Taibach came back with a vengeance
and equaled the score. With excellent defensive work, the Rhigos kids
turned over the ball to ensure a try within the last two minutes to
see Rhigos emerge victorious. This was a great opportunity for the
Rhigos kids as not only were they invited to play, they were also
invited to participate in the guard of honour for the two teams, Neath
and Cardiff. All involved with Rhigos Minis and Juniors would like to
thank Neath R.F.C and the development officer Gary Clements for giving
the children this fantastic oppurtunity. THE TEAM
