Quins dominate Pembroke
Pembroke Dock Harlequins RFC U16’s in their new team kit before
Sunday’s match at Bierspool Ground.
WITH the Christmas and New Year festivities over, Pembroke Dock Harlequins U16’s entertained the friendly crowd with some powerful running rugby, and opened the score with a well worked try for pacey winger Ieuan Jenkins via a cross kick taken out wide. The Quins’ forwards powered on with dominance, and The Quins’ backs let loose with a powerful and commanding display by the beefy centre partnership of Arron Boswell and Hywel Baker.
Young Boswell was spurred on by the vocal support from his Granddad and rugby legend, Ossie Boswell, who was pleased to see the family tradition of only forwards being finally broken! Pembroke rallied well and pressed The Quins’ defence at times, and after a reshuffle in teams they finally crossed the line to score. The Quins were soon back on the attack, and Josh Watters (number 8) picked up at the base and made a surging touchline sprint that even the great George North would have been proud of, before diving over to score in the corner.
New signing, Gareth ‘Sparky’ James looked sharp under the high ball and attacked well on the wing, coming close to scoring in the corner. It was great to see two local sides all looking to play good running Rugby throughout with the Quins always in control. The Quins’ line out and scrum dominated throughout and allowed the coaches to move some of the players about and try out some new combinations. Pembroke never gave up and made some great yards through determined pick and go forward play, but a stout Quins defence kept them at bay.
The match referee was Mr Charley Watts, who officiated the game in good free-flowing spirit. The Quins forwards: Tom Watson, Tom Barrass, Tommy Clarkson, Tom Rowe, Matthew Washbourne, Jordan Middleton, Jordan Davies, Jordan Palmer, Josh Watters, Joe Gray & Scott Treyhern.
Backs: Ollie Lewis, Will Nicot, Aaron Cookson, Hywel Baker, Arron Boswell, Ieuan Jenkins, Ben Lascelles, Andrew Skone, Leighton Heart and Gareth “Sparky” James. The Pembroke Dock Harlequins RFC are also delighted for three of their U16’s Players, who have recently been selected for the Scarlet’s U16’s West Squad. The Scarlet’s West Squad will be competing in the U16’s regional structure against: North Wales, Cardiff, Swansea, Newport & Scarlet’s East.
A WALES fan has passed away while following his team with his friends and family at the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
Kevin Davies, a 62-year-old from Pembrokeshire, has sadly died while in the Middle East with his son and some pals to witness Wales’ first World Cup campaign since 1958.
The Pembrokeshire Herald understands that Mr Davies died of natural causes on Friday but he was not at the stadium to watch Wales’ 2-0 defeat by Iran.
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office confirmed it was “supporting the family of a British man who has died in Qatar”.
His family is being offered UK consular assistance.
The Wales Football Supporters’ Group said: “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Kevin Davies, of Pembrokeshire, who sadly passed away in Doha yesterday.
“The Red Wall are a family and we are here for you.”
