The
club has always offered its visitors a very warm welcome on the field
and magnificent hospitality off the field. Although in recent years
the Club has not enjoyed the success the talent it has produced
suggests it should enjoy, it has always played with passion.
Players
nurtured at Laugharne have gone to other Clubs to hone their talents.
The classic example being Gary Pearce whose totalling skills were
developed at home in Laugharne before flourishing with Bridgend RFC,
Llanelli RFC and Wales. He was a fine Ambassador for Laugharne RFC. It
is a testimony to the Club that players who have tested rugby with the
larger Clubs are anxious to end their playing days back home in
Laugharne, contributing to the development of the Club.
The
club has great spirit which has carried it through one hundred
memorable years. On behalf of the Welsh Rugby Union its is my honour
to congratulate Laugharne RFC on attaining its Centenary and wish the
Club every success in the forthcoming celebratory season.
