For the second year running RGC East U15s will represent the region in the highest tier of the Dewar Shield schools competition.
The RGC East boys start the ball rolling this week, Friday 27th February, with our first away fixture to Pontypridd Schools.
The game, to be played at the University of South Wales Playing Fields, Pontypridd, kicks off at 3:30pm and the team are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to display their talent in what promises to be a tough pool stage.
Weekly training from September (many thanks to Ruthin RFC for the use of their facilities) has seen the squad of 33 develop into a solid outfit, with wins over our provincial counterparts and Aberavon Schools ensuring we were eligible for the Dewar.
Future weeks see fixtures against Rhondda Schools U15s (home – 7th March, last years winners!) and Swansea Schools U15s (away – 13th March), with all three of the opposition teams having performed well in the competition of recent years.
I would take this opportunity to thank all of the schools that have allowed their pupils the day off so that they can represent their region.
