Pontardawe Rugby Football club is a rugby union club based in Pontardawe, a small town in the valley of the River Tawe in Wales. The club has a hugely successful junior section which provides age group rugby with fully qualified coaches from 7 through to 16. As players move on from junior/youth rugby many other clubs benefit from the early development of these players by Pontardawe. The coaches this year are Dai Hawkins and Jordan Byrne and Team Manager is Darren Rees. Over the years Pontardawe RFC has produced a number of first-class rugby players and coaches. In 2007 they celebrated their 125th year of being a Welsh Rugby Union member club. In May 2006 Pontardawe RFC were one of the 13 'Rebel' clubs who brought a vote of no confidence against the Welsh Rugby Union, which centered on financing and the handling of former coach Mike Ruddock's departure. The vote failed heavily with only 20 votes for the motion and over 300 against.〔(Welsh clubs give backing to Union - BBC Sports, sourced 16th Aug 2007 )〕 ==Past notable players== * James Griffiths (1 cap)Welsh Youth (15 caps) Wales u 21's (5 caps) Wales "A" (4 caps) * Phil Hopkins (4 caps) * Percy Lloyd (4 caps) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pontardawe RFC」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
