SRC opener at the Park – Gêm gynta’r gystadleuaeth newydd

Carmarthen Quins will play in the new look Super Rygbi Cymru in season 2024-25, our 150^th season of rugby!

In what is deemed the biggest structural shake-up in Welsh rugby, since the introduction of regional rugby in 2003, Carmarthen Quins are one of 10 licenced clubs that will move out of the community game to become aligned with the professional tier.

The aim of the newly formed Super Rygbi Cymru is to bridge the gap for players moving between the academies and the regional clubs.

On Saturday 14^th September we will get our first ever Super Rygbi Cymru fixture underway as we welcome Swansea to Carmarthen Park, kick-off 14:30.

SRC will be aligned to the professional game calendar and the United Rugby Championship to create a collaborative working relationship between the 10 clubs and the four regional clubs. This will include breaks in the competition during the autumn and Six Nations international windows.

In addition to 18 regular home and away league fixtures we will also feature in the SRC Cup competition. The cup competition that will take place during the Guinness Six Nations window.

As well as playing in the SRC trophy and cup, the 10 teams will also get the chance during the regular league campaign to fight for the SRC Challenge Shield. Similar to New Zealand’s Ranfurly Shield, the ‘holder’ will put up the Shield for competition in every home game in the regular league season.

Season Structure

The season will be played in three blocks (September & October / December / April & May)
Regular Season: 18 Rounds with all 10 teams playing each other home and away
Begins on the weekend of 14 September
Post-Season Finals: The post-regular season finals will consist of four knock-out stages
The Grand Final on or around Saturday 17 May 2025 (at a neutral venue).

There will be three pieces of silverware available to the teams – the Super Rygbi Cymru Trophy, the Super Rygbi Cymru Cup, and the Challenger Shield.

GÊM GYNTA’R GYSTADLEUAETH NEWYDD

Yn nhymor 2024-25, yn ogystal â dathlu canrif a hanner o rygbi yng Nghaerfyrddin, byddwn ni’n un o’r 10 clwb a fydd yn cystadlu yng nghystadleuaeth newydd Super Rygbi Cymru.

Mae Undeb Rygbi Cymru wedi cyflwyno’r gystadleuaeth newydd, sydd yn symud y gêm o’r gymuned i’r maes proffesiynol, er mwyn lleihau’r bwlch rhwng y lefel lled-broffesiynol a’r gêm rhanbarthol yng Nghymru.

Fe fyddwn ni’n dechrau ar ein taith yn y SRC, ddydd Sadwrn 14eg Medi, wrth i ni groesawu Abertawe i Barc Caerfyrddin.

Fe fydd y gynghrair yn rhoi cyfle i ni chwarae 18 gêm arferol, cartref ac oddi cartref, yn ogystal â chystadleuaeth cwpan a fydd yn digwydd yn ystod Pencampwriaeth y Chwe Gwlad.

Strwythur y tymor

Chwarae’r gemau mewn 3 bloc (Medi a Hydref, Rhagfyr, Ebrill a Mai)
Tymor arferol: 18 rownd gyda’r 10 tîm yn chwarae ei gilydd gartref ac oddi cartref
I gychwyn ar benwythnos 14eg Medi
Rowndiau terfynol: Fe fydd yna bedwar rownd ail gyfle ar gyfer y rowndiau terfynol
Y Rownd Derfynol – Sadwrn 17 Mai 2025 mewn lleoliad niwtral

Fe fydd cyfle i gael ein dwylo ar dri thlws – Tlws Super Rygbi Cymru, Cwpan Super Rygbi Cymru, a Tharian yr Herwyr.

Dewi Thomas

All at the club are saddened to hear of the passing of true Mighty Quin, Mr Dewi Thomas.

Dewi represented the club over a number of years as a strong running, hard centre that played with an edge that opponents found difficult to handle as he would never take a backward step. Playing for and captaining the Quins Second XV otherwise known as Carmarthen United or more fondly as the F Troop, a team that epitomised rugby, play had on the field, enjoy off the field, Dewi was part of a band of brothers who lived and breathed the Quins.

Away from rugby Dewi was a distinguished fire fighter serving the Community for many, many years.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Sheila and to son Steffan who as we all know is our 1st XV Team Manager. We hope at this difficult time you can find comfort that Dewi was a highly regarded individual not only in the Quins and the rugby fraternity but the wider community.
