MINI & JUNIOR SECTION

Developing the rugby skills of young players in a fun and engaging way...

The thriving Gwernyfed RFC Minis and Junior section is heading into every season with a renewed enthusiasm and appreciation of oncoming games, training and ability to socialise with team mates and supporters alike. 


After finishing last season on a high with tournaments and awards plus the odd tour, I’m sure the players can’t wait to get back playing and new members to experience the great facilities and support of our club.


Over the coming season there will be a whole club drive to raise funds for the new toilet block to be constructed down the fields, an effort I’m sure the Mini and Junior section will wholeheartedly support. The outcome of which will be a huge benefit for the section and any suggestions for fundraising ideas are always welcome. 


One of the main appeals of rugby is the team environment, which is key not only on and off the field. The club is run and maintained by a variety of volunteers, so we’re always looking for help to join the team to keep these facilities going, so if readers of this have an hour or two a month in which you’d be able to assist in any capacity, please let the coach of the age group know.

Produced as part of the Club’s 50th anniversary celebrations, this fantastic book contains results, reports, photos and recollections from some of the players who have worn the green, white and black since the club’s inception in 1965. Great times with great friends, playing for the badge...


There are still a limited amount of books available - ask for a copy at the bar...
