KILGETTY booked their place in the quarter finals of the Harrison Allen Bowl on Tuesday (May 24) as they beat Pembroke Dock by five wickets.

Kilgetty won the toss and chose to field and they were able to bowl the Dock out for 129 with three balls of their innings to spare.

The home side lost Scott Griffiths and Tom Grimwood early on, both on scores of 5 and both bowled by Richard Cope.

Jake Davies made a score of 19 but he was bowled by Anthony Bevan as the Dock slipped to 40-3.

Billy Wood and Archie Hillier-Wood then shared 45 runs for the fourth wicket.

Wood hit two fours and a six in his score of 26 but he was then bowled by Levi Hughes.

The wickets continued to fall as Hughes then had Jamie White caught by Ollie Gamble before Geoff Marsh stumped Rhys Daley to give Jack Tucker his first wicket of the night.

That left the Dock on 113-6 and it soon became 118-7 as Hillier-Wood, who had hit two fours in his score of 36, was bowled by Hughes.

Hughes and Josh Bevan then ran out Euan McDonald and Nick Daley respectively before Hughes claimed his fourth wicket of the night to finish with figures of 4-22.

Kilgetty celebrate another of their wickets

Toby Poole started well for the visitors as he hit five fours in a score of 23 from 13 balls.

He had seen fellow opener Tom Lewis depart after being caught off the bowling of Billy Wood before being bowled by Wood.

Jack Parkinson and Richard Cope took over and they shared 59 runs for the third wicket.

Cope hit three fours and a six in his score of 31 but he was then caught by Connor Carroll off the bowling of Nick Daley.

Jack Tucker was bowled by Euan McDonald for a duck and the same bowler then had Parkinson, who had hit four fours in a score of 38, caught by Scott Griffiths.

That left Kilgetty on 103-5 and they still needed to get 27 runs in the final three overs.

Josh Bevan and Ollie Gamble held their nerve as they three fours and two sixes between them to help their side into the last eight of the competition.

Bevan finished unbeaten on 16 from 12 balls (1 four, 1 six) while Gamble was not out on 14 from 6 balls (two fours, 1 six).

Competitors were warmly welcomed by supporters from Ceredigion and further afield whilst they competed in the various races in Aberaeron and Aberystwyth.

Ceredigion County Council thanked the organisers, sponsors, volunteers and emergency services for their hard work in pulling off this major event successfully and safely.

Council leader, Councillor Bryan Davies said: “It was a pleasure to host the British Cycling Championships in Ceredigion. It places our county on the big stage as a special location to host prestigious first class events like this.

“Professional cyclists came from near and far to brave the roads of Ceredigion which offered the perfect balance between being challenging but also extremely enjoyable. It was great to see so many people visiting our county enjoying all the things our local businesses have to offer. Congratulations to everyone who was part of the event.”

The Beicio Cymru Championship, held on Saturday, included races for Ceredigion school pupils of various ages, organised by Beicio Cymru, Ystwyth Cycling and Ceredigion Actif.

Jonathan Day, British Cycling Events managing director, said: “It has been a phenomenal Lloyds National Road Championships with three days of incredible racing in Ceredigion.

“Aberaeron and Aberystwyth have been great hosts of this prestigious event, laying on fantastic courses for our riders which has led to some entertaining races.

“More than anything, events like this really show the legacy and impact of hosting championships in these areas. We have seen lots of young people out on the courses cheering on the riders, seeing the country’s best riders up close.

“The support has been brilliant, so we would like to extend out thanks to the Welsh Government, Ceredigion Council and all our stakeholders who assisted in successfully delivering the Championships.”

Welsh Government Minister with responsibility for sport, Jack Sargeant, said: “It was a real pleasure to welcome the Lloyds National Road Championships to Wales. Congratulations to Ceredigion on hosting such a prestigious event so well.

“The Welsh success in the elite women’s time trial with Zoe Backstedt’s magnificent victory, combined with the participation of over 200 youngsters in associated community events, will have helped inspire a new audience to enjoy cycling.

“This championship has delivered an exciting opportunity to see the next generation of British and Welsh talent in action, as we continue in our preparations to host a stage of the Tour de France in 2027.

“Events like this showcase Wales as a world-class destination for cycling and demonstrate the positive impact that sport can have on our communities.”
