Neyland bow out of West Wales Cup

NEYLAND bowed out of the West Wales Cup on Saturday (Oct 2) as FC Bonymaen scored two late goals in a 3-1 win.
The game was one of a handful to be played as rain caused many games to be abandoned.
Neyland’s game in Bonymaen did go ahead though as they played on a 4G surface at Penyrhoel Leisure Centre.
Perhaps adapting to the different surface, Neyland started slowly and that allowed Bonymaen to score in the first two minutes, Dean Green with the goal for the hosts.
After that Neyland managed to get their shape and created chances but couldn’t do enough to level the game up. It was a feisty affair but the youngsters, alongside old heads Paul and Sean Hannon, held their own.
With the second half started and Neyland’s fitness showing they started to create more chances with Max Bowman-Davies causing trouble for the back line of Bonymaen all afternoon.
Neyland drew level when a free kick from Mike Chandler found Sean Hannon and he volleyed in after letting the ball drop over his head.
As the game entered the final ten minutes, the home side were given a dubious penalty when the ball hit Will Clewes in the box. The ball appeared to hit him high up near the face but the referee pointed to the spot.
Green dispatched the penalty for his second goal of the game.
In an attempt to get back level Neyland switched formation and with Max Bowman-Davies in on goal the Bonymaen keeper cynically brought him down and was shown a straight red card.
Another substitute Aidan Rees came on the wing and created more chances and was unlucky not to score after a great save by the substitute keeper.
As full time approached the Green completed his hat trick to seal the win and to sink Neyland’s hearts.
Neyland manager Gavin Rowland said after the match: “It is a disappointing for the boys but they continue to grow each week.”

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.
