This case is concerned with the right of the claimant, the Pontypool Rugby Club, a club with a proud history, to continue to play in the Premier Division of Welsh rugby in the 2012/13 season. The defendant is the Welsh Rugby Union, which organises and controls the sport of rugby union in Wales. It is the view of the WRU that as a result of the re-organisation of the Premier Division to reduce the number of clubs playing in it and Pontypool’s position in order of playing meritocracy of the fourteen clubs formerly in the division, the club is now only eligible to play in the Championship, the next division down. The essence of Pontypool’s case is that clubs which are above it on a basis of playing merit have not met the requirements to hold an A licence as required for the Premiership by the WRU’s National League Rules 2011/2012, and so there is a place for Pontypool within the Premiership. -

Carmarthen Velodrome Redevelopment on 24Th October 2017 One of the Most Historic Local Events for Many Years Took Place in Carmarthen
CARMARTHEN TOWN COUNCIL – PRESS RELEASE/NEWS ITEM Carmarthen Velodrome Redevelopment On 24th October 2017 one of the most historic local events for many years took place in Carmarthen. The re-opening of the town’s Victorian Cycling Track was the culmination of several year’s planning by a project team led by Carmarthen Town Council. The original velodrome was opened on Easter Monday in 1900 and became a mecca for cycling competitions in West Wales during the early part of the twentieth century, with cycling races attracting thousands of spectators and professional competitors from all over the United Kingdom. During more recent times the cycling track had become less well used due to the need for renovation, and during the summer of 2017 contractors moved in to complete the construction phase of the redevelopment. Thanks to grants provided by Carmarthen Town Council, Carmarthenshire County Council and Sport Wales Carmarthen Town Council was able to proceed with the project in the knowledge that the likely redevelopment costs of approximately £600,000 would be met. The Clerk of Carmarthen Town Council Alun Harries, who has worked on many different local, regional, national and international projects during his career said: “This has without question been one of the most unique and challenging projects I’ve ever been involved with. The Velodrome is located in Carmarthen Park, one of the key attractions in the middle of the town, which is a conservation area, and it also a listed building. The rugby pitch – located in the middle of the cycling track – is the home of Carmarthen Quins RFC who play in the Premiership of the Welsh Rugby Union – and we therefore had to plan to undertake the construction phase of the project during the close season – which of course is the summer and the time when most people visit the attractions and events that take place at our Park”.
