February 17th: GCS 0 SDR 14

The U14's succumb to their first defeat of the season with a spirited performance against the two year undefeated side from the Ospreys region.

Swansea District Rugby run out eventual 14-0 winners, and showed the level that all the boys need to be for our North wales sides to compete on a regular basis with our southern counterparts.

A special mention must go to the heroic defensive organisation that GCS showed to ensure both sides knew they had been in a hard competitive game.

Well done to the boys and Newtown for hosting the day.
