Cardiff Quins 14 Penarth 21 – Saturday 12 January 2013
The obvious improvement in the Seasiders’ league form we saw up at Aberdare before Christmas had a lot to do with the ferocity of the pack. Last week’s departure from the Swalec Plate taught us little, but on a filthy afternoon up at Read more →
SWALEC Plate Round 2: Penallta 48 Penarth 3 – Saturday 5 January 2013
Having been kept waiting four weeks by the festive weather, the Seasiders were finally allowed to bow out of this season’s Swalec Plate and can now, thankfully, “concentrate on the league”.
If Penallta’s position in the upper reaches of Read more →
Aberdare 32 Penarth 24 - Saturday 8 December 2012
The difference between this and the last outing against Brecon was stunning, to be honest. Third-placed Aberdare found themselves struggling for most of the 80 minutes against a rejuvenated Penarth side who seemed to have solved most of their problems.

Penarth 13 Brecon 30 – Saturday 17 November 2012
This is when it starts to look a bit worrying, to be honest. Brecon arrived at the Athletic Field having won their last three games, but two of these were big scores against Nantymoel and Tonyrefail. The Seasiders, while still way below Read more →
Dowlais 30 Penarth 0 – Saturday3 November 2012
Dowlais are good, but they’re no Pontyclun. But let’s be fair, it’s not about them, is it? No, it’s the Seasiders we need to talk about, if only because once again they found themselves two tries down after only ten minutes.
This is getting Read more →
BEDLINOG 42 PENARTH 8 – Saturday 27 October 2012
On the face of it Penarth’s switch from league to knock out competition just left them on the end of thumping. But that’s far from the whole story on this visit to pastures old at Second Division Bedlinog.
To be sure problems still Read more →
Penarth 14 Pontyclun 74 – Saturday 20 October 2012
Now we know why Pontyclun are top of the table with a points difference of +244 after only eight games: they’ve got a tremendous back division ably, if a little unconventionally orchestrated by full-back Gavin Pascoe. What remains a puzzle is how Read more →
Penarth 5 St Peters 43 – Saturday 13 October 2012
This was a deeply disappointing game for the Seasiders and paying public alike. Not just because they lost to a very ordinary St Peters side and not even because they conceded six tries in doing so. The really depressing part is Read more →
The first Ely valley derby of this season was firmly put on hold last Saturday up at Tonyrefail as a waterlogged pitch put paid to the game during the morning. It’s unfortunate to drop such an attractive fixture at this stage of the season, as the Seasiders must have fancied Read more →
Penarth Rugby Club hosted a fantastic family fun day on Saturday in glorious sunshine.
There was a host of activities ranging from face painters to funfair rides.
The final event of the day was Penarth’s SWALEC League Division 3 SE game against Nantymoel which resulted in a win for Penarth.
