Gogledd Cymru u 20s 24 pts York University 8 pts
An excellent performance by the Young Gogs, still not at full strength, shook the students at Eirias Park on Sunday. York had won all of their league games last season and gained promotion to the North One division alongside Liverpool University who had narrowly lost to the Gogledd Cymru senior side the week before.
The students looked good for the first ten minutes but the hard working home pack began to grind them down and force their side forward. From third phase possession, Mike Oakden picked up and charged forward before off loading to Joe Sproston who timed a fine pass out to Mike Hall. The man of the match hooker crashed into the defence and crossed the line to score. Carwyn Milburn, playing at full back, kicked a fine conversion. Within five minutes, the students found a gap in the home defence and scored a try out wide but the conversion was missed and the Gogs remained ahead. The home forwards then produced a sustained period of pressure and the irrepressible Nathan Roberts picked up from a scrum and brutalised his was over in the corner. Milburn again converted from the touchline. The period up to half time was evenly matched until a yellow card was shown to Anthony Tilley for not using arms in the tackle. The students kicked the penalty from this offence and it looked like the home side might suffer for Tilley’s indiscretion but his team mates rallied and held out until the break leading 14 - 8.
There followed a stalemate for almost half an hour until a penalty by Milburn put the Under twenties side beyond a score ahead. This was a cue for the Gogs to cut loose and fine runs from Paul Selwood, Adam Price and Dave Jenkins threatened their opponents line. Kriss Wilkes then showed his class and cut through the tiring visitors defence to score under the posts. The full back rounded off affine all round game with yet another conversion. The students gave their all in the dying stages but the back row led by captain Dale Blackmore with Tilley and Roberts tackled everything and locks Aaron Organ and Matt Banks ensured that any holes were blocked. Scrum half Wil Davies gave way for Craig Horseman to make an impressive debut and Mike Oakden stood aside for Sean Aaron Jones to show what future talent there is in the region. An injury to stand off Jamie Morris meant that Wil Davies was back on the park at ten but the side kept their shape. With just a minute to go Nathan Roberts suffered an horrific break to his leg and an ambulance had to be called. The game could not continue and was called no side. Nathan was taken to Glan Clwyd where he had an immediate operation. Monday morning saw him sitting up smiling and joking about his injury, amazing both staff and visitors with his spirit. Many thanks to Physio “Princess” Leah, Jimmy Waring and the ambulance staff for their kindness and professional actions.

06.10.09 Gogledd Cymru South v Gogledd Cymru East
The first ever Provincial Games took place in Cobra on Sunday 27th September, when Gogledd Cymru South took on Gogledd Cymru East. The day was a great success with approximately 200 players taking part in the three ages of U12’s, U13’s and U14’s. All games were extremely competitive with the East just edging it at U12’s and U13’s, but the South getting the better at U14’s.
Big Thanks to players, parents, coaches and COBRA for all their support.
Looking forward to Gogledd Cymru South v Gogledd Cymru West at Bangor RFC on Sunday 25th October.

04.10.09 Bethesda 29 Wrexham 6
04.10.09 Bethesda 29 Wrexham 6
Wrexham were the visitors to Dol Dafydd on Saturday and it was the visitors that started the strongest putting Bethesda under pressure but a spilled ball gave Bethesda possession deep in their own half an excellent pick up and a strong run saw an excellent pass put flanker Arwyn Griffiths in space to sprint in under the post from 40 meters conversion by Parry. Wrexham were soon back in the game a minute later reduced the arrears with a penalty. The Bethesda scrum was solid and gave the visiting pack a torrid time. There was no more scoring till the34 minute when Wrexham reduced the arrears further with another penalty to make the score 7 points to 6. From more scrum pressure No 8 James Roberts touched down Half Time Bethesda 12 Wrexham 6. Mathew Parry operating from No9 in his first game for a month broke on the blind and thru a perfect dummy to score an excellent try. Wing Gareth Edwards was next to touch down when he collected a difficult pass to score. He repeated the feat with 5 minutes to go this time making the conversion easier for Parry. A satisfactory result and for the second week kept their defensive line intact. The next 3 weeks will not be so easy with an away trip to Aberaeron this Saturday them away to Rhyl and home to Bala before the break for the autumn internationals.
