Bonymaen Youth, from Division OA,were victorious in yesterday’s National League Play Off Final – a reversal of the Cup Final result when Merthyr won with the last kick of the match.
Bonymaen dominated the match and deservedly took the National Youth League crown. In a League season that was played through 27 Divisions by 175 teams the Swansea based team were impressive from beginning to end.
After an even first quarter of the match between the two sides, Bonymaen built a commanding 17-0 lead by half-time and never looked back. The enterprising Bonymaen team scored five tries before scrum half Daryl Jenkins crossed to put Merthyr on the scoreboard late in the second half.
