Junior Team
As numbers increased the Junior section managed to produce a team of its own. The boys were thrilled to compete in 2008 against local rivals Whitchurch - even more so when they came away with an excellent win.
The Pentyrch team that day was
Gareth Downs (lead), Joel Dyer (2nd), Harri Lewis (third) and
Owen Morgan (skip & captain).
