Dunvant host an already relegated Black & Ambers side this afternoon with Dunvant seeking to improve on last season’s 69 points total.

Games against Kidwelly have always been tightly contested for the full 80 minutes. Two seasons ago Kidwelly were the 1 West Champions but in failing to win the promotion play offs with Trebanos for Championship status they lost a number of players and support staff needing to rebuild quickly. Last season they battled in the relegation zone with Tenby, Penclawdd and Tycroes managing to finish 9th on the last day of the season with Penclawdd and Tycroes being relegated. This season has again been tough for the Black and Ambers hogging the relegation spots with Tenby and they have won only three games , an impressive 8-3 home win over 2nd placed Gowerton an 8-6 win at Llanelli Wanderers and a 23-31 win at Tenby United. With 3 wins, 18 losses and 33 tries they are already relegated but rest assured they will be playing with vigour and pride today in their last game in 1 West. We wish them well and hope they bounce back quickly. Dunvant have had a disjointed season with lots of injuries and postponements but after last Saturday’s battling 20-22 win at Gowerton , all 22 points coming from outside half Adam Williams-Parry, Dunvant are guaranteed 2nd place. We currently have 66 points including a 2 point deduction. Can we improve on last season’s 69 point total and get over the 70 mark? Finally, we wish the very best of luck to 1 West Champions Felinfoel in their 2 legged play offs with Ystalyfera for Championship status.
A huge thank you to all our Sponsors for their contributions during 2018-19 and we look forward to welcome you all and our supporters back to Broadacre for the 2019-20 World Cup season.
Don’t forget you red and green supporters- respect the Referee, respect the players, respect our opponents and enjoy the game, whatever the result. Be Loud-Be Proud
