Under 13s Osprey Cup Win 31 points to 5 !

The Under 13s produced an impressive win today against Ystradgynlais, Tom Gwyn scoring three tries, Luke Evans and James Wild also scoring. Dan Renowden won at least six scrums against the head aswell as not lossing any for South Gower, Will and Jake Keogh put in a relentless tally of tackles, Edward Blackaly put in a fantastic set of tackles which proved that patience in learning earns its rewards. Ystradgynlais had some very large players who could easily hand off South Gower (when we didn't tackle properly !). Kicking today was difficult in a very strong wind however Charlie and Jake completed the conversions missing only one, touch kicks from Jake and Charlie showed that the new kicking rules are being well adapted to. The front row were awsome in controlling the scrums Dylan, Dan, Josh and Rees. Dan Gibbon gave his usual standard or rugby not letting anyone take the ball of him and creating countless turnovers. Ryan supported all the backs superbly and had some excellent off-loads and Jack Sheppard who after leaving the field with a hand injury was able to return to the game to replace Taylor who became injured after a massive tackle on a player twice his size.
Well done boys another win and great improvement !
