Match Report

Pontyclun Kings


Cynon Valley Cavaliers sealed the U12 trophy in a well-fought final against a Pontyclun Kings side who did well to reach the final in their first year as a club.

Cavaliers took an early lead through an Alfie Archer try that Jack Field converted.

Kings soon hit back through an unconverted Frank Jackson score, but Cavaliers extended their advantage on 14 minutes when Oliver Andrews forced his way over and Field converted.

The score was 12-4 at half-time, but a yellow card, given to Cavaliers’ Alfie Archer for a high tackle, gave Kings the advantage for the first few minutes after the break, but the Cynon defence held firm.

Cavaliers had possession for much of the second half, looking to extend their lead, and with six minutes to go, Finlay Blenkinshop-Clarke chased his own kick and dived to score. Field added the extras again.

Pontyclun had the final say with a well-worked try scored by Zander Hobrough and converted by Louis Morgan but it wasn’t enough to stop Cynon’s celebrations.
