Ystrad Rhondda RFC are back at Gelligaled Park again this weekend as they host Llangennech RFC in the Admiral Premiership.
Following last weekend’s home fixture against Pontypridd, Ystrad will be looking to build on their performance and deliver a strong showing in front of their supporters once again. With the season entering its closing stages, every game presents another important opportunity.
Team News
Liam Wiggins captains the side from the back row.
In the forwards, Tom Stacey, Corben Evans and Leon Moore pack down in the front row, with Mason Roderick and Cole Parry in the second row. The back row sees Wiggins joined by Carwyn Owen and Kelly Jones.
At half-back, Callum Phillips partners Lewis Williams.
In midfield, Cole Morgan lines up alongside Logan Hutchings, while the back three sees Cavan Davies, Kurtis Williams and Alex Webber.
Among the finishers, Carl Williams, Daniel Morgan, Nathan English, James Owen, Sion Edwards, Keian Richards, Jacob Symes and Calen Edwards are named.
There is also a proud moment for the club as Calen Edwards — another product of the Ystrad pathway — is set to make his senior debut from the bench.
The Challenge Ahead
Llangennech will provide another tough test, bringing a physical edge and strong structure to their game. Ystrad will need to be accurate and disciplined across the full 80 minutes to match that challenge.
Playing back-to-back home fixtures gives Ystrad an opportunity to settle into their surroundings and build momentum, with the backing of the Gelligaled crowd a key factor.
Conclusion
With the season approaching its final stretch, this fixture presents another important opportunity for Ystrad to deliver a performance on home soil.
Backed by their supporters and with another pathway player set to make his debut, the focus will be on putting in a committed display and making home advantage count.
