Rhiwbina Youth get the local bragging rights as they beat Llanishen in a typical North Cardiff derby encounter. With both teams showing total commitment, often boiling over at times, Rhiwbina's 2 tries to 1 plus a superb penalty from the half way line gave them a well deserved victory.
To cap off a successful Saturday both the 1st and 2nds went on to record good wins.

Without much rugby in recent months, today represented an opportunity for the U10's, U11's, U12's and U13's to get their second round Blues Cup games played. The U10's and U11's registered good wins against Treorchy and Taffs Well respectively and the U13's once again knocked out Penarth for the second year running. Special mention goes to the U12's who registered a fantastic 44-5 win over last season's semi-finalist Brecon.

Minis/Juniors - Sunday 31st Jan 2010

All games called off due to frozen pitches.

Seniors - Saturday 30th Jan 2010

The first games for 6 weeks saw the U7's to U11's have some very good results against Dinas Powys.
The U12's travelled upto Pentyrch where a fruitful morning produced a good 41-19 win against first class opposition.
Many thanks to both Dinas and Pentyrch for hosting the games after the parks were called off in Cardiff.

Saturday 23rd Jan 2010

The Youth and Seniors saw their first competitive rugby for nearly 2 months.
The 1st's went down 9-18 against Nantymoel in a game that was all penalties.
The 2nd's lost to Llandaff North 13-21 where a good open game ensued with the final score a fair reflection of the afternoons play.
The Youth lost in a tight game to local side St Joes.

U11 - Taffs Well -v- Rhiwbina

Meanwhile the Juniors were also inflicting heavy scores on their counterparts at Llandaff North where both the U13's and U15's registered 50+ point wins but the U14's went down 0-32 to an in-form Abergavenny side.
