Hold up: Johnny Horgan holds the ball up from a Clarbeston Road player
Goodwick United 6
Clarbeston Road 0
SENIOR CUP holders Goodwick United breezed into the third round of the competition as they won 6-0 against Clarbeston Road at Pheonix Park on Saturday.
Both sides started the game well in a traditional cup tie played in blustery conditions but the Division One leaders outclassed their Division Two opponents.
Clarbeston Road had the first chance of the game when after two minutes, Paul Jenkins played the ball forwards for Tom Reubens who sent the ball across the face of goal for Ben John but his effort was brilliantly saved by James Gwilt in the Goodwick goal.
With thirteen minutes gone Goodwick took the lead when Adam Raymond’s cross was not cleared properly and the ball fell to Rhys Dalling who had time to compose himself and curl the ball into the top right corner of the net.
The visitors could have drawn level soon after when Matthew Ellis’ free kick was flicked on by Tom Reubens but the ball fell straight into the arms of James Gwilt.
Goodwick thought they had doubled their lead with 25 minutes played when Rob Morgans knocked the ball into the net but the referee ruled it out saying that Rob Morgans’ was offside.
They did get their second goal soon after as the ball fell to Rob Morgans who blasted the ball into the top corner.
It was 3-0 just two minutes later as Chris O’Sullivan played the ball through for Rhys Dalling who shot with the outside of his left boot into the bottom left corner of the net.
The home side continued to dominate and had a penalty shout turned down but it wasn’t long before they had their fourth goal when a cross from the right from Johnny Horgan seemed to deceive everyone flying into the back of the net.
Clarbeston Road faced an uphill task in the second half but just five minutes in, Goodwick scored their fifth goal.
Johnny Horgan scored his second goal of the game as he drilled the ball low into the bottom right corner of the net.
Rob Morgans had two chances to increase Goodwick’s lead but he shot wide and saw an effort saved by the Clarbeston keeper.
With fifteen minutes to go Adam Raymond almost added another goal but his effort rebounded back off the post and into the arms of the keeper.
Raymond had another shot saved before the home side finally added their sixth goal.
Rhys Dalling played the ball to Rob Morgans who placed the ball into the bottom left corner of the net to seal a comfortable win.

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.

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.
