PEMBROKE booked their place in the semi-finals of the Duggie Morris Cup on Tuesday night (Jun 7) as they beat St Ishmaels by 21 runs.

Tish won the toss and chose to field and Pembroke made a good total of 168-5 from their 20 overs.

Jack Harries and Jonathan Rogers shared 52 runs for the first wicket but Lewis Rhead made the breakthrough for Tish as he bowled Rogers on a score of 13.

Harries and Luke Butler shared another 46 runs for the second wicket as Harries reached his half century.

He hit eight fours and two sixes in his score of 59 from 45 balls but he was then caught by Huw Scriven off the bowling of Andrew Pawlett.

Butler and Alan Webster continued to put runs on the board as they added another 43 for the third wicket.

Butler hit three fours and a six in his score of 37 from 29 balls but was then trapped leg before by Andrew Williams.

Andrew Price fell soon after to Phil Llewellyn and Steve Durston was run out as Pembroke’s innings faded a little.

Webster, though, finished unbeaten on 36 from 25 balls with three fours and two sixes to help Pembroke to their total.

Tish knew they would need a good start and that’s exactly what they got as Jonathan Pawlett and Phil Llewellyn shared 62 runs for the first wicket.

However, when Steve Durston had Pawlett caught by Luke Butler on a score of 26, that sparked a mini collapse as Tish soon found themselves on 73-4.

Sam Davies had Brennan Devonald stumped by Butler before Durston got two more wickets as he trapped Karl Rhead leg before for a second-ball duck and also bowled Andrew Pawlett.

Llewellyn and Peter Bradshaw looked to steady the ship and they shared 39 runs for the fifth wicket to keep their side in with a shout.

Llewellyn had hit eight fours and two sixes in his score of 61 from 42 balls but he was caught by Jonathan Rogers off the bowling of Durston.

Durston then claimed his fifth wicket as he had Richard Brock caught by Jack Harries and he went on to finish with excellent figures of 5-24.

Bradshaw and Andrew Williams added 27 runs for the seventh wicket but that partnership was ended by Alan Webster who had Williams caught and bowled on 13.

Bradshaw had hit two fours and a six in his score of 24 but he was then bowled by Webster as Tish’s hopes of victory began to fade.

They could only reach 147-8 to give Pembroke victory.

In the picturesque setting of Kilgetty, under the soft glow of the evening sun, local football fans were treated to an enticing clash between Kilgetty and Carew in the Pembrokeshire League Division 1. With the season winding down, both sides took to the pitch amidst numerous squad rotations, following a hectic week of multiple fixtures.

The match kicked off in a leisurely pace, resembling more of an end-of-season friendly than a fierce competition. Kilgetty seized the early initiative, with the trio of Josh Bevan, Richard Tebbut, and Richard Cope causing headaches for the Carew defense, skillfully led by Gareth Lewis. It was Jac Waters who broke the deadlock for the home side, putting Kilgetty ahead 1-0 as the first half came to a close.

However, Carew emerged revitalised after the break, with Jonty Bennett, James Hinchcliffe, and Zac Rowell putting in the hard yards to level the score. The introduction of Harvey Drummond for the ineffective Sam Christopher added further depth to Carew’s attacking prowess, culminating in an equaliser courtesy of the excellent Hinchcliffe.

As tensions rose, the game took on a newfound intensity, marked by needless bookings, after a clearly offside goal and a few heated moments on the field. Despite the fatigue evident from their recent fixture congestion, both teams showcased their competitive spirit, treating the fans to an entertaining second half.

In the end, neither side could break the deadlock, with Kilgetty and Carew having to settle for a well-fought 1-1 draw. While neither team was at their absolute best, the match provided a fitting conclusion to their respective seasons.

It’s the time of the year again, Saturday see’s Bridge Meadow host the senior cup final. The sun has been shining and both teams will be dying to get on the pitch. This year the final will be contested by Goodwick United and Clarbeston Road.

League champions Goodwick will go into the final as favourites, and most around the county expect a Goodwick win. It has been an outstanding season for Goodwick however cup success has evaded them so far. Clarbeston Road have impressed everyone this season and really deserve their place in this years final.

Neill Crawshaw will referee the game, with Tudor Walters and Stefan Jenkins running the line.

There will be a unique contest on the pitch as brothers Will Haworth and Laurie Haworth come face to face on opposing teams. Adrian their father was a great player in the county, and played in many cup finals himself.

The stage is set, Clarby will feel less pressure than Goodwick and will be a threat with Haworth, John and Davies in attack. Meanwhile Goodwick are also blessed with quality players in every department, there is no weak link in O’Sullivans team. Cup football and finals in particular never go as people predict. On paper Goodwick are firm favourites, Clarbeston Road will be happy the game will be played on grass though and not paper, anything can happen! Hopefully it’ll be a good crowd down at the Meadow for the show piece of Pembrokeshire football.
