A competent all round first half performance ensured Carmarthenshire passage into the Welsh Cup semi finals. Tries from back row members Llyr Morris and Rhodri Jones both converted by Geraint Hughes, who also put over a penalty catapulted Carms into a 17 point to 3 lead at the interval. However a spirited second half performance from Pembrokeshire saw them reply with a penalty try which was easily converted from under the posts.
This win ensured a 27 - 16 aggregate win ensured a semi final match against the winners of the Cardiff Blues region on the 19th of November.
The winner of the above semi final will contest the final against the winner of other semi to be played between the winners of the Ospreys regionn and the Newport Gwent Dragons region.

Carms Under 16s 3 - 7 Afan Nedd Under 16's
Carmarthenshire were very unlucky to loose to a very determined Afan Nedd side at Ammanford last Friday night. Despite leading 3 points to nil thanks to a Rob Evans penalty the Carmarthenshire side leaked a close range try and conversion early in the second half.
Continued forward pressure and superb running and handling skills by the backs constantly asked questions of the Afan Nedd defence. Unfortunately despite brave endeavour Carmarthenshire were unable to break the Afan Nedd defencive line.
