Members of the Welsh Rugby Union & affiliated to the Mid District Rugby Union

Saturday September 8th 2001 - A date in history

This was an historic day for all concerned at Deri Broncos RFC.

It saw the Broncos play their first ever game in the Welsh National Leagues against Baglan RFC, and it is the reward for  many people over a number of years. These people both past and present have worked very hard; sometimes alone, in the quest to bring full WRU membership and National league rugby to Deri RFC.

A special thank you to all those concerned, both past and present

We are known as the Deri Broncos, and will again be playing in Division 5 South East for the season 2008/09, after finishing close to the top last year the club are hoping for another successful season.

The Broncos have a new director of Rugby in Peter Morgan. Peter will oversee all rugby matters, and will again work with coach Mark Pugh. Peter, Mark and the rest of the dedicated personnel will hopefully further develop the rugby within Deri RFC.

Mark Pugh will again be assisted by Andrew Thomas in the senior setup.

Fixtures

The Broncos are home to Hirwaun on Saturday February 28th and hope to continue with improved performances to the end of season. The Broncos were lacking enthusiasm against both Old Pens and Cowbridge and were rewarded withlosses against better teams on the day. The Broncos rekindled their season with a hard fought win over Pontyclub.

The Broncos 2nd XV played in a hard physical match against old adversaries Blaenavon Forgeside in a club game, and were rewarded with a win of 17 – 5. The game was nearly all the Broncos for the first half and all the Forgeside for the second. Resolute defence kept Forgeside from scoring and credit must be given to all the players from both sides in an entertaining match for players and spectators alike.

The Deri RFC Broncos would like to thank all those people who give up their spare time to help the Rugby club in all ways, Whether it be as a supporter, sponsor, behind the bar, helping out for food preparation, raffles or disco it is much appreciated by all at the club.
