Last Wednesday 23rd March 2022 saw the Girls Hub start to resurrect itself with a registration event held in Abergwili for the newly named Carmarthen Jesters.
The event is aimed at girls from the age of 7 to 18 to take up the great game. Covid hit all sports hard but none more so than girls specific rugby here in Carmarthen. With work ongoing prior to the pandemic to restart the hub it was more or less wiped out over the next two years due to Covid.
Officials from the Quins mini and junior section have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to get this back up and running and give the girls of Carmarthen and surrounding areas a chance to try rugby.
A good number of girls turned out last Wednesday but the hub needs more and this coming Wednesday 30th March they were will be another opportunity to register your interest yourself or for your female relatives.
Registration for all will be available from 5.30pm to 6.30pm with a training session for those younger girls between ages 7 and 11. Training for the older age groups will commence the following week on 6th April.
In addition to players we would also like to call on volunteers for the positions of coaches and team managers. Officials of the mini and junior section will provide as much support as possible and there is the opportunity for interested individuals to undertake rugby specific coaching courses to allow the sport to grow.
The location is the Club’s training facility in Abergwili where you will all receive a warm welcome and we look forward to seeing you. If you would like to have more details then please email Neil on d4ddo@hotmail.co.uk
We hope the resurgence of the Senior Wales Women’s team with their victory last weekend will be a catalyst for more to join.
