Narberth hold off Nomads to win Ken Morris Cup

NARBERTH Thirds won the Ken Morris Cup on Monday, August 30 as they beat Landsker Nomads in the final.
The final saw both sides play two twenty-over innings at Narberth Cricket Club and the culmination of a tournament that was organised by Richard and Rhian Howell.
The Nomads won the toss but invited Narberth to bat on home soil and they were able to bowl them out for 112.
Narberth lost Gary Nicholas early on to the bowling of Manu before Arran Keane and Shay Norcross shared 27 runs for the second wicket.
Keane scored 22 before being bowled by Manu and wickets continued to fall at regular intervals after that.
Norcross fell to the bowling of Richard Reed, Jamie Bohata was trapped leg before by Philip Gooch and when Rob Nicholas was bowled by Manu Narberth had slipped to 55-5.
Llew Jones and Rhys Davies shared 24 runs for the sixth wicket as they looked to push their score up towards three figures.
Jones scored 11 but he was then caught by Reed off the bowling of Oliver Cook.
Davies hit two sixes in his score of 14 but he was then bowled by Andrew Joseph as the wickets began to fall again.
Joseph then had Aled Davies caught by Cook as Narberth were reduced to 89-8.
Ceri Davies and Elliot Evans added 22 runs for the ninth wicket to ensure they did get into three figures.
Gareth Morgan bowled Davies on a score of 13 and he took the last wicket to bowl Narberth out. Narberth’s score was also helped on by 24 extras from the Nomads.

The Nomads lost Richard Reed early in their reply when he was run out but Will Davidson-Randell and Manu shared 27 runs for the second wicket.
Davidson-Randell was then caught and bowled by Llew Jones on a score of 9.
Manu and Andrew Joseph added another 22 runs for the third wicket before Joseph was bowled by Shay Norcross.
Oliver Cook was bowled by Jamie Bohata and Gareth Morgan was caught and bowled by Ceri Davies as the Nomads were reduced to 75-5.
Dudley Joseph was also bowled by Davies as the Nomads edged towards three figures.
Davies then trapped Philip Gooch leg before before Bohata got the wicket they had been looking for.
Manu had batted well to reach his half century but was then caught by Rhys Davies off the bowling of Bohata on a score of 51.
Ceri Davies then took his third caught and bowled of the innings to dismiss Daniel Warder.
Bohata then caught and bowled Andrew Trainer as the Nomads were bowled out for 114, a lead of just two runs. The Nomads’ score was also helped along by 20 extras from Narberth.
With a slender lead, Narberth would have hoped to have got into a lead before losing any wickets.

However, they were struggling early on as Arron Keane was out to the bowling of Manu with the score on 2.
Narberth also lost Gary Nicholas and Jamie Bohata as they slipped to 5-3.
Shay Norcross and Llew Jones led the recovery though as they shared 84 runs for the third wicket.
Jones hit six fours and three sixes as he reached his half century but he was then caught by Andrew Trainer off the bowling of Richard Reed on a score of 53.
Norcross had made his way to a score of 20 but he was then trapped leg before by Philip Gooch.
Aled and Ceri Davies were both bowled by Gareth Morgan in quick succession as Narberth slipped to 102-7, a lead of 100.
Rhys Davies and Rob Nicholas then batted well together as they shared 47 runs for the eighth wicket.
Nicholas finished not out on 10 while Davies hit one four and four sixes in a score of 46 not out.
That helped Narberth finish on 149-7 and it meant the Nomads would need 148 to win the game.
Ollie Cook and Richard Reed shared 17 runs for the Nomads as they began their final chase but Llew Jones had Cook caught by Ceri Davies and he then bowled Andrew Joseph for a duck.
Reed and Manu shared another 34 runs for the third wicket but Elliot Evans made the breakthrough as he bowled Manu on a score of 15.
Soon after, Evans bowled Reed on a score of 25 as the Nomads were reduced to 53-4.
Will Davidson-Randell was then run out on a score of 4 before Gareth Morgan and Dudley Joseph shared 23 runs for the sixth wicket.
Morgan was then bowled by Evans and Daniel Warder was then caught by Shay Norcross off the bowling of Ceri Davies.
That left the Nomads on 95-7 and when Philip Gooch was bowled by Davies, they were 100-8 with time running out.
Joseph did finish not out on 37 but the Nomads could only finish on 117-8, giving Narberth victory by 31 runs.

Double podium finish for local rally driver

A 20-HOUR round trip to Machrihanish Airbase in Campbeltown, Scotland, proved more than worthwhile for 17-year-old rally driver Henri Cynwyl, who returned to Wales with two podium finishes.
Henri, from Ponthirwaun, claimed third place on both days of competition in the British Junior Championship and the 1000cc Ecosse Challenge, strengthening his lead in the F1000 British Junior Championship.

The two-day Mach1 Stages Rally was organised by Dunfermline Car Club, with 31 F1000 members taking to the fast tarmac stages of the airbase, cheered on by a warm Scottish welcome.
“I’m really pleased,” said Henri, who was co-driven by Geraint Evans from Bala. “The stages were long, and I much prefer long stages to short ones as I get into a flow. The fast tarmac really suited my car.”
Now in his second and final year in the championship, Henri is backed by a number of local businesses from the Cardigan area.
“I’m so grateful to all of my sponsors and team,” he said. “The car is prepared by Castle Motors in Newcastle Emlyn, and we’ve just welcomed Pembrokeshire College as one of my new sponsors for 2025.”
Henri is currently undertaking an apprenticeship as an electrician with both Pembrokeshire College and DJ Hoyland.
The next round of the F1000 Championship will take place at Wheaton Barracks in Blackpool at the start of August.

Kilgetty AFC Women score new Lucozade kit thanks to Tenby Post Office Stores

Local nomination supports grassroots football in Pembrokeshire
KILGETTY AFC Women’s Team has received a brand-new Lucozade Sport Kit, thanks to a nomination by Tenby Post Office Stores and local supporter Fiona Malone.
The donation includes reusable drinks bottles, bibs, a football carrier bag, a kit bag, and bottles of Lucozade Sport – part of a UK-wide initiative that saw only ten teams selected to receive the sports kits.
‘A natural choice’
Fiona Malone, who nominated the team, said: “We were really happy to nominate Kilgetty AFC Women’s football team when we were asked by Lucozade. My son plays for Kilgetty Under-13s, and the whole club is incredibly inclusive, so when Lucozade asked, we immediately thought of the women’s team.”
The kit was officially handed over on Sunday (July 13) during the club’s Chwarae FOR HER Wales v England watch party at Kilgetty AFC Football Club, Kingsmoor Sports Club.
Team thanks local backers
A spokesperson for Kilgetty AFC Women said: “We are very grateful to receive all of the items from Tenby Post Office Stores and Lucozade. We particularly appreciate the reusable drinks bottles and Lucozade Sport drinks – we’ve been bringing our own, or using the men’s bottles. The bibs are great, and the new bags will be really useful. Thank you!”
Backed by the community
The women’s team continues to grow as part of the wider female football movement in Wales, supported by local businesses and groups. Ongoing kit sponsorship for the girls’ teams has come from Ty Francis and New York Welsh, while Tesco Stronger Starts funding and FAW grants have supported equipment and coach education.
The women’s team has also received training kit sponsorship from Kilgetty WI, and playing kit and volunteer support from Saundersfoot Rotary.
Each of these donations, including the new Lucozade kit, is helping transform grassroots football – building players’ skills, boosting confidence, and creating a stronger sense of belonging through sport.
