Welcome to Cowbridge RFC

A good start to the season was topped on Saturday when the 1XV beat Division 2 side Mumbles by 16 -10 in Round 2 of the SWALEC Cup.  Excellent performances by the 2 young second rows Ross Gibbon and Tom Llewellyn. Non playing Captain Steve Birchenough also had a tidy game!

We now progress to ROUND 3 where we have been drawn away to BALA RFC. Should be a good trip all supporters welcome.

We currently stand 5th in our League Division 5SE. For full results see Fixtures Tab.

New Fixture List Season 2008-2009 now under fixtures. 1XV & 2XV and Youth Fixtures.
