REIGNING Welsh Cup champions Gowerton Year 10 kicked off their campaign with a hard-fought 18-7 win over Cwmtawe.

Confidence was high after last year's success, but Cwmtawe, who themselves had reached the quarter- final of the Welsh Cup, proved to be tough opponents.

Gowerton, captained by Swansea Schools skipper Will Jones, took the lead in the 15th minute when hooker Jordan Liney touched down, and full-back Tom Howell converted.

Howell stretched the lead with a try two minutes into the second half. He missed the conversion and Cwmtawe were very much back in the game when they crossed for a converted try in the 42nd minute.

But the hosts stepped up their efforts and Howell stepped up to kick penalties in the 44th and 47th minutes to secure victory. No. 8 Morgan Morris won the man-of-the-match award.
