ATHLETIC 7 v MAESTEG HARLEQUINS 14

​Another very competitive pre season match for the Red & Blacks, this time against Division One West Central outfit Maesteg Harlequins. It was very evident that Quins were a very well drilled side and their pack were experienced in turning over ball. The Athletic, despite missing six regulars, put in a resilient performance with some excellent defensive disciplines. The visitors scored the only try of the first half to lead 7-0 at the break.

​The sides scored a try apiece in the second period and both sets of team coaches can be well satisfied with a very useful exercize. The final score was 14-7 to the visitors.

​Next Saturday 2nd September, Athletic entertain last season's undeafeated champions Amman United in the first league match of the season.
