  • Capital Visit for the Cameras
    The Online Welsh Rugby Championship has been devised and created by All Wales Sport Ltd. The Online Welsh Rugby Championship - Saturday Preview by Ian Davies - chief Rugby writer Capital visit for the cameras Premiership giants Cardiff play their last league game at home in the online season, and there to stream 'live' the Pool 8 clash against South Wales Police will be Rajasthan TV Channel 2. '' Cardiff are one of the great clubs in world rugby and have provided more players for the Welsh national team and the British & Irish Lions than any other in Wales, '' said Mr. I. M. Bean, who is head of sport at the channel. It all started in 1876 when Cardiff Rugby Football Club was founded following a meeting at Swiss Hall, Queen Street, when the amalgamation of two clubs, Glamorgan and Cardiff Wanderers was agreed. The first competitive game was played at Wentloog Marshes on 2nd December that year. The first home game was played at Sophia Gardens, but the club soon relocated to its famous ground at Cardiff Arms Park which was named after the local Cardiff Arms public house and on the grounds of the old Cardiff Hotel. Cardiff's iconic home was soon to be shared by Wales, who staged internationals on the ground from 12th April, 1884 until 15th March,1997. Wales beat Ireland by two tries and a dropped goal to nil in their first international at Cardiff Arms Park, but lost their last one 34-13 against England. In 1999 the National Stadium, Cardiff Arms Park, as it was officially known, was replaced by the Millennium (Principality).

  • NEWARK RUGBY UNION FOOTBALL CLUB the First Seventy Five Years
    NEWARK RUGBY UNION FOOTBALL CLUB The First Seventy Five Years A.J.COLEMAN Foreword. The first mention of Rugby in the Newark area is a paragraph in a book, Football the Rugby Union Game, published in 1891. This states that the Hull Club, formed in 1865, played a type of Rugby and amongst its opponents were Newark, whom they played four times a year. A search through the Newark Advertisers and Heralds of that time and an investigation by the R.F.U. cannot offer any information, but one possibility is that there may have been a Military Unit stationed in the area who played this handling game. Dr. Ernest Ringrose, a Rugby fanatic arrived at Newark in the 1880's. The "little" doctor as he was affectionately known, a talented player with Old Merchant Taylors Club soon tried to enthuse the people of Newark into the game of Rugby Football. On December 19th 1891, a challenge match took place on the Sconce Hills between a team from Newark and a team from Nottingham. The Newark team was composed from the people of Newark to "this side of Bingham". This match is assumed to be the first to be played in Newark although a press caption of several issues prior to the event states "that Newarkers do not often enjoy the chance of seeing Rugby Football" giving further claim that there had been a Military Unit playing a type of Rugby Football. The match details which were reported in both the local Newspapers (although they could not agree on the score) and allowing a little poetic licence went as follows: "Newark Rugby lads are a hardy lot for this game they played alongside a group of iceskaters.
