NEYLAND and Hook are both through to the second round of the Alec Colley Cup after both won their respective first round matches this week.

On Tuesday, June 1, Neyland beat Carew by five wickets in a low scoring encounter with Patrick Hannon doing the damage for the visitors.

He took four wickets to help bowl Carew out for 92 as they struggled to cope.

Hannon’s figures of 4-17 were almost matched by Tom Pritchard who finished with 3-18.

George Evans also took two wickets for Neyland.

Gareth Lewis scored 16 for the home side and Morgan Grieve added 11. Max Brindley did make a score of 30 with a four and two sixes but wickets fell at regular intervals.

Hannon and Gregg Miller then shared 40 runs for the opening partnership as Neyland began their reply well.

Carew hit back though as Ceri Brace trapped Hannon leg before on a score of 14. He also had Stephen Murray caught by Grieve.

Miller made a score of 20 but he was then bowled by Barry Evans to reduce Neyland to 46-3.

Will Hughes and John Tennick then shared another 41 runs to edge their side towards their target.

Tennick scored 23 from 23 balls (two fours, one six) before he was caught by Grieve off the bowling of Evans.

Hughes hit four fours in a score of 20 from 14 balls but he was bowled by George Waters.

Paul Miller then hit the game-winning boundary to book Neyland a second round home tie against Haverfordwest.

On Wednesday, June 2, Hook beat Llanrhian by seven wickets.

Llanrhian were bowled out for 78 with George James (3-19) and Andrew Thomas (3-15) both taking three wickets.

Rhys Price made a score of 14 and there were also scores of 11 from Mike Lawrence and Matthew Bennett. Anthony John made 10 but that was as good as it got for the home side.

In reply, Lawrence took two wickets to finish with figures of 2-29. There was also a wicket for Bennett (1-15) but it wasn’t enough to stop their opponents.

Lewis Miller finished unbeaten on 14 and Jamie Phelps finished not out on 41 as Hook sailed to victory.

The win sets up a second round home tie with Llangwm.

The final round one fixture takes place tonight and sees Saundersfoot host Lawrenny for the right to visit Stackpole in round two.

Cwmamman United stun Tenby AFC in an unforgettable 3-3 thriller to reach the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup

Cwmamman Utd 3 Tenby AFC 3 (Cwm win 3–2 on pens)

AN EXTRAORDINARY cup tie unfolded at Grenig Park as Cwmamman United and Tenby AFC shared a breathless 3-3 draw, before the hosts edged through 3–2 on penalties.

Tenby struck almost instantly, with Lloyd Hughes finding the net inside the opening minute. Cwm hit back on 14 minutes when Cam Isaac produced a superb finish to level the tie, but Joe Leahy restored Tenby’s lead before the break – a goal that for long spells looked like it might settle the contest.

Deep into stoppage time, however, Cwmamman refused to accept defeat. In the 100th minute, Jackson Brereton pounced to smash home an equaliser and force extra time.

The drama only intensified. Tenby were awarded a hotly disputed penalty in the 114th minute, converted confidently by Hughes. The spot-kick also saw Cwm’s Kieran Rees – who had been excellent alongside Kai O’Donnell at the heart of the defence – shown a red card.

But with virtually the last kick of the game, Cwm’s goalkeeper Kai Rees strode forward for a final desperate attack and unleashed a stunning 25-yard volley to make it 3-3, sparking wild celebrations around the ground.

Rees was far from finished. In the decisive shootout, he produced two superb saves to secure a 3–2 penalty win and send Cwmamman United into the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup.
