Marsh’s century in vain as rain ends Lawrenny and Haverfordwest game
LAWRENNY’s Kurtis Marsh scored his second century in three games but it proved in vain as their game with Haverfordwest was abandoned on Saturday (Jun 5).
Haverfordwest had won the toss and chose to field in a game reduced to 42 overs after the start was delayed.
It proved a good decision as Johnny White had Harry Thomas caught by Simon Williams and soon after, White trapped James Phillips leg before to leave Lawrenny on 15-2.
Steve Lewis and Marsh then shared 49 runs for the third wicket with Marsh edging towards a half century.
Clive Tucker then had Lewis caught by Jack Scriven on a score of 11 to reduce the visitors further to 64-3.
Marsh and Joe Kidney shared 90 runs for the fourth wicket to put Lawrenny in a strong position.
Kidney hit six fours in a score of 45 but he was caught and bowled by Williams.
Marsh had made his way to a score of 90 and he soon reached his century with nines fours and a six in his score of 102.
He could not add to that however, as he was caught by Dan Field off the bowling of Williams.
Dai Davies then removed Kyle Marsh but Ryan Morton hit three fours and a six as he reached 41 off 35 balls.
He was bowled by Davies and Thomas Cole’s late score of 12 took Lawrenny to a total of 223-7 from their 42 overs.
Lawrenny’s Rob Williams took the wicket of Mikey Jones early in Town’s reply and Jamie Lewis took the wicket of Danny Potter but that was as good as it got.
Ben Field and Dai Davies had reached scores of 19 and 11 respectively but rain intervened and it meant that no further play was possible.

Clubs event inspires girls to try new sports
MORE than 50 young people took part in a multi-sport taster event designed to encourage girls to get involved in new activities.
The Sport Pembrokeshire Community Clubs event was held at Fishguard Leisure Centre on Sunday (Dec 1) for pupils from Ysgol Bro Gwaun and its feeder schools, with sponsorship from Valero.
Local sports clubs and activity providers offered a wide range of sessions, including cricket, self-defence, rowing, dance, hockey, tennis, table tennis, rugby and basketball. Water for participants was kindly provided by Princes Gate.
Young Ambassadors from Ysgol Bro Gwaun also played a key role in helping the event run smoothly.
Dan Bellis, of Sport Pembrokeshire, said: “It was a fantastic evening and it was brilliant to see so many young people and coaches in attendance.
“There was a wide range of activities on offer and everyone clearly enjoyed themselves.
“We hope the girls who took part have discovered a new sport or activity and will continue their involvement with the local clubs and providers who supported the event.”

Keeper scores 121st-minute wonder goal before saving two penalties
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.
