Since the turn of the millennium Penallta Rugby Club has enjoyed an extraordinary period of success. If the first decade of the new century was incredible in terms of its trophy haul then the second decade has possibly eclipsed it.
At this stage of New Year's Eve most of us will be too drunk to do the counting, but comparing the decades barely matters. What does matter is recognising the excellent efforts of the players, coaches, parents, stewards and supporters of our great community village club throughout what has been a sensational ten years and an even more sensational twenty.
During the past ten years Penallta RFC visited the National Stadium an incredible SIX times to compete in Welsh Rugby's premier competitions. Across the 1sts, 2nds and Youth the achievements have been as prolific as they have been sensational and sustained.
Let's hope for another decade of continued sucesses. Well done all, and if you are a Penallta supporter, drink deep and enjoy the list below.
Happy New Year!
