Dear All / Annwyl Bawb,
Football - Swansea City South West Wales Regional Finals
An honourable mention to our football team who played in the Swansea City Foundation south west Wales regional finals this week.
Despite great performances by all, we exited the competition in the group stage - not quite recovering from two early losses to schools from Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire. In the second half of the group, we recovered well to win one game and draw against the school who were to progress to the semi-final.
Well done boys and girls - another example of great teamwork, sportsmanship and sporting success at Catwg!
