Double Sporting Success

Here is combination of photographs from the Regional and National finals of the Urdd Football tournament 2012. We entered three teams in the regional tournament, two boys teams and one girls team. The girls lost in the final after an amazing performance. They only conceded one goal all day, unfortunately that was in the final. The boys teams came first and fourth, our best combined result ever. Pontyclun Primary School are now the Mid Glamorgan regional champions 2012. Both teams played fantastically well and represented the school admirably. Our champions then traveled to Aberystwyth on a beautifully sunny day to represent the region in the national finals. Here they played their best football of the year. After some tight matches and superb performances the boys made it to the national final. With only two teams left in the competition, the boys once again gave 100% but unfortunately it was not to be their day. Pontyclun came runners up in the All Wales competition. Well done boys the school is proud of you.


 


 Today our Rugby Team became Taff Ely "large schools" champions. After wining the sevens competitions earlier in the year, this is the second trophy that the school has won this season. The boys also won the year 5 title in 2011, making this team champions in all competitions over the last two years.

An impressive performance today as Pontyclun beat Dolau Primary in the final 49-40. Equally impressive is their winning record over the last two years. Well done and congratulations to the entire squad, the school is very proud of you.
