Seagulls soar as Whitland struggle in tough rematch

Fishguard & Goodwick 45 – Whitland 14
FISHGUARD & GOODWICK delivered a commanding performance to secure a 45-14 victory over Whitland in a highly anticipated rematch at The Moor. Earlier in the season, Whitland edged a narrow 13-10 win at Parc Llwyn Ty Gwyn, but this time, the Seagulls took full control from the outset.
The home side dominated proceedings early on, heading into halftime with a 19-0 lead. Despite a spirited effort from Whitland in the second half, Fishguard remained in the driving seat throughout.
Fast start sets the tone
Fishguard’s forwards laid the foundation for their success, with young talents Rhys and Will Lewis, Bryn Thomas, Cai Llewellyn, and Will Delaney stepping up alongside captain Sion Colella and seasoned front-rowers Iwan McVeigh and Liam Wilkes. Their dominance in the set-piece provided half-backs Dan Evans and Jake Jenkins the perfect platform to unleash their backline.
Hooker Liam Wilkes opened the scoring before winger Rhys Evans and full-back Mark Jones crossed for further tries. Jones also added two conversions, giving the Seagulls a comfortable cushion at the break.
Whitland fight back but fall short
Minutes into the second half, veteran replacement Gavin Walsh secured the bonus-point try, again converted by Jones. Whitland, however, refused to roll over. Captain Dan Bennett led from the front, with Rhys Nicholas, Iestyn Comey, and the Hughes brothers—Will and Tom—putting in strong shifts. In the backs, Gareth Davies and Oli Bujega were constant threats, and their persistence paid off as Will Hughes and pacy winger Morgan Lewis touched down for well-earned tries, both converted by replacement full-back Jonathan Thomas.
Seagulls finish in style
Despite Whitland’s fightback, Fishguard reasserted control. Centre Nial Keane powered over for a try under the posts before Mike Jenkins capped off a fine individual performance with a final score, sealing an emphatic victory for the Seagulls.

Solva sailor Micky Beckett leads British medal surge in Mallorca

Pembrokeshire sailor Micky Beckett has once again cemented his place among the sport’s elite, securing his fourth consecutive victory in the ILCA 7 men’s dinghy class at the prestigious Trofeo Princesa Sofia regatta.
Hailing from the coastal village of Solva, Beckett sealed the title with a day to spare — a remarkable feat that underscores his dominance on the international circuit and sends a strong signal ahead of the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic campaign.
His win was one of nine medals earned by the British Sailing Team in Mallorca, with Great Britain finishing top of the medal table ahead of Australia and China.
Beckett, who has steadily climbed the ranks in recent years, is now one of the standout figures in British sailing. Known for his consistency and calm approach on the water, the 29-year-old has made the ILCA 7 fleet his own, and his continued success reflects the strength of both his individual talent and the support around him.
“If this week is anything to go by, the future is bright for the British Sailing Team,” said performance director Mark Robinson — a nod to Beckett’s influence and the broader success of the squad.
While Beckett led the charge, fellow Brit Emma Wilson also delivered a standout performance. The two-time Olympic bronze medallist won 14 of 21 races in the iQFOiL foiling windsurfing class, earning her the prestigious Princess Sofia Trophy — the event’s top honour.
“It’s crazy – I wasn’t expecting it at all,” said Wilson, 25. “There are names on this trophy like Ben Ainslie, people I’ve looked up to since I was a kid. To have my name on there now is pretty cool.”
The British team also took home gold in the 49erFX (Saskia Tidey and Freya Black), 470 (Martin Wrigley and Bettine Harris), and Nacra 17 (John Gimson and Anna Burnet). There were silver medals for Lily Young (Formula Kite) and Elliot Hanson (ILCA 7), while Ellie Aldridge (Formula Kite) and Daisy Collingridge (ILCA 6) each claimed bronze.

Pennar Robins stay in top-four hunt
Pennar Robins 3 – Clarbeston Road 1
PENNAR Robins kept their hopes of a top-three finish alive with a solid 3-1 win over Clarbeston Road at Bush Camp.

Adams netted his second in the 88th minute to put the result beyond doubt and keep Pennar in touching distance of Monkton Swifts, with two matches left to play.

Narberth Athletic overpower Llangwm as St Davids claim dramatic win

Narberth Athletic 61 – Llangwm 10
NARBERTH Athletic delivered a dominant display to defeat Llangwm 61-10 in their latest Division Four (West) fixture.
Llangwm showed promise in the early exchanges, particularly at scrum time, where their front row of Ieuan Power, Ben Elrick, and Matthew Rees competed well. However, it was the home side who controlled the scoreboard.
Narberth opened the scoring after 31 minutes with a converted try from prop Shay Norcross. That breakthrough was followed by a blistering five-minute spell in which captain Harry Phillips crossed three times, all converted by Shane Rossiter, giving the hosts a commanding 28-0 lead. Llangwm responded before the break with a penalty from Breig Matthews.
In the second half, Narberth extended their lead with tries from Brad Cramb and Stephen J Brown, the latter again converted by Rossiter. Llangwm briefly rallied with a converted try from No 8 Matthew Rees, but Narberth’s bench provided a strong finish. Will Davies touched down twice, while Rossiter added another try and two further conversions, finishing the match with a personal haul of 21 points.
St Davids 31 – Pembroke 24
ST DAVIDS sealed a league double over Pembroke with a thrilling 31-24 home win, a match that also marked the unveiling of the John James Memorial Scoreboard, in honour of a much-loved club stalwart.
The visitors struck first through a penalty from Jarred Sharratt, but St Davids hit back with a try from captain Nathan Foster, converted by Bob Froy. Pembroke regained the lead when Barry Alderman-John crossed for a try in his final game, also converted by Sharratt.
St Davids responded before the interval through player-coach Morgan Griffiths, who scored his first try of the afternoon, again converted by Froy.
The second half saw the momentum swing back and forth. Evan Davies put Pembroke back in front with a try, before a Froy penalty levelled the scores. A converted try from Fraser James gave Pembroke the lead once more, but Griffiths proved the difference, completing his hat-trick with two more tries—both converted by Froy—to secure victory for the Saints.
The win also saw St Davids lift the Willington Slate, an annual trophy contested between the two clubs.
