llangadog Jon Ford of club sponsor Highgate recently told Rugby Club Magazine, “I moved to the village 10 years ago for a quieter life and found the community aspect in Llangadog to be very encouraging. This is mainly why I support the rugby club which is at its heart and I would like to wish everyone at Llangadog continued success!” He told us, “I have been involved with Llangadog RFC since 2002; the club was formed in 1993, by ex-Llandovery, Llanelli (pre- Scarlet’s era) and Wales wing, Llangadog boy, Carwyn Davies. I moved away from Llangadog in 1988 aged 21, I had moved to Southampton, while there, I took up playing football with a couple of local sides, I then returned home in 2002 and signed up as a player for Llangadog RFC, at the ripe old age of 34. While living away, Llangadog RFC was formed and I always tried to find out how they were doing. They were a good side, and won a lot of trophies, it was a great grass roots club, and run by good local people, who incidentally are still here after www.pitchero.com/clubs/llangadogrfc- Twitter : @LlangadogRFC www.sportip.biz 89
