TRIO BOOST RAVENS PACK

After announcing the signing of six new backs to add to the squad, Bridgend Ravens can confirm the addition of some new faces amongst the pack for the new campaign.

Bridgend’s pack ended last season strongly and the majority of those involved regularly will again play in blue and white next year. Jordan Collier, Dafi Davies, Tom Morgan, Aled Evans, Adam O’Driscoll, Ben Jones, Jack Pope, James Little, Cai Lewis, Gareth Harvey, Iestyn Merriman, Neil Elworthy, Owen Jordan and Rhodri Apsee have all penned fresh terms to work under new Forwards guru, Alun Wyn Davies.

Pre season got underway last week at Pencoed College and with just 54 days until the first Indigo Premiership clash with Aberavon on Saturday 7th September, all focus is on fine tuning the squad.
