Youth Rugby
In 1983/84 the Youth XV was formed under the coaching of the former Llanelli prop Huw Jones. The Youth team has produced players not only feeding into the senior sides but also winning county and district caps.
The club has also had two players who have gained Welsh Youth Caps, namely Huw Morris and Rhys Jones. The former was selected to play second row for the Welsh Youth against the England Colts, at Leicester, on 3 April 1987.
Rhys Jones played for the Welsh Youth in 1990/91, against France, Japan, and England, and went on the Welsh Under 19 Tour to Canada and played in a test match. Josh Turnbull was part of the 2006 Wales Under 19 Grand Slam winning team and captained the side against Ireland and France in February 2007.

Famous quotes containing the word youth:
“The death of a dear friend, wife, brother, lover, which seemed nothing but privation, somewhat later assumes the aspect of a guide or genius; for it commonly operates revolutions in our way of life, terminates an epoch of infancy or of youth which was waiting to be closed, breaks up a wonted occupation, or a household, or style of living, and allows for the formation of new ones more friendly to the growth of character.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
