Neyland get back to winning ways

Published

on

NEYLAND bounced back from defeat to Saundersfoot and their Harrison Allen defeat with victory over Llangwm on Saturday (May 14).

Neyland won the toss and chose to bat but they were restricted to 151-9 in their 45 overs.

Ashley Sutton and Lewis Page started well for the hosts as they shared 57 runs for the first wicket.

Page hit four fours in his knock of 32 but he was then bowled by Steven Mills. That sparked a mini collapse as the hosts slipped into trouble on 63-5.

Chris Inward had Andrew Miller caught by Luke Brock for a duck and Steven Mills then bowled Ashley Sutton on a score of 21.

Mills then trapped Gregg Miller leg before for a second-ball duck before Inward did the same to George Evans.

Callum Power and Sean Hannon steadied the ship and they went on to share 59 runs for the sixth wicket.

Power hit six fours in his score of 43 but he was then run out and soon after Joe Phillips had Patrick Hannon caught by Matthew Kiff for a duck.

Phillips also bowled Jack John as Neyland slipped further into trouble on 126-8.

They were indebted though to skipper Hannon as he hit two fours and a six in a knock of 41, before he was bowled by Matthew Kiff.

That score though had propelled Neyland to 151-9 and gave Neyland something they could defend.

Noah Davies made an early score of 10 and Joseph Kiff added 9 but both fell to the bowling of Jack John.

John also bowled Luke Brock for a duck but scores of 28 from Steven Mills and 31 from Matthew Kiff kept Llangwm in the game.

Mills had hit three fours and a six in his score but he was stumped by Sean Hannon off the bowling of Andrew Miller.

Miller also had Chris Inward caught by Gregg Miller who later took the catch to dismiss Joe Phillips to get a wicket for Sean Hannon.

Kiff was caught by Gary Lloyd off the bowling of Patrick Hannon and the same combination struck to remove Toby Asson.

Oliver Davies hit a score of 27 but it wasn’t enough to see Llangwm to victory and he was bowled by Jack John.

Sean Hannon claimed a second wicket late on as he bowled Daniel Morgan and it meant that Neyland had won by 19 runs, bowling Llangwm out for 132.

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.
