Welsh Primary Schools Championships Report
The Welsh Primary Schools Championships took place today the Sport Wales National Centre.
This event proved to be a great success with 36 teams entered, this was an increase from last year in which we had 24 teams entered. From the 36 teams who entered 15 teams where those from Cardiff primary schools with again is a big increase from last year where there was only 4 teams.
After a very enjoyable and fun packed day it came down to the final two teams to see who would take the title this year. Last year's runners up St.Marys Primary school who were fielding the same team of Joseph Roberts and Jack ODuffy went up against last year's winners Grange A of Swansea. This time it was the Cardiff based team who came out on top with a 55-24 win over last year winners.
This was a great achievement for St.Marys Primary School. School coach Derek Clarke said 'I am very happy to have players from the school winning this event, it has been a fantastic experience for our school players to play in such an event as this and hopefully each player has gained experience for the future.' Derek Clarke will now be looking to step aside as the school coach at the end of this school year as he would like to finally retire and take a back seat. We wish that all his hard work continues to have successes like this one and he will be deeply missed by the school and the players.
Another big achievement came from Llandaff City Primary School who finished in 5th position, considering they have only been playing since October this is a great achievement for the school and the players

Burton Uxbridge 1*Star Junior Open
This weekend saw four Cardiff Regional players travel to Burton Uxbridge for the 1*Star Junior Open. Macauley Morgan, Alasdair Weir, Elliot Weinburg and Joseph Roberts made the trip with Regional Coach Simon Oyler.
After an early morning trip, it was Joseph Roberts who showed what he is capable of by winning all his matches in the Under 11's Round Robin group of 7 players to make up for his second place last time around. Joseph played extremely well and was very happy to win his first 1*Star title.
Macauley was the only player to get through both Junior and Cadet groups and lost in the quarter finals of both to the same player. Elliot Weinburg and Alasdair Wier lost out in both Junior and Cadet Groups on countback.
The young welsh superstar Joseph Roberts continued his form into the Under 13's event. Joseph won his group beating Sam Welsh to top spot. Joseph won his quater final match 3-0 to set up a semi-final showdown with the young and talented Joey Chen. Joseph started well in the first set but went down 11-9, the second set also went to the young chen 11-6. After being 2-0 down Joseph showed some great determination to try and get back into the game but it just wasn't to be on this occasion and lost out 13-11 in the 3rd set.
All the players showed great courage and determination to do their best at the tournament, it is now back to the training hall to put in more hard work to better ourselves next time around.
Congratulations to the Joseph Roberts who at 9 years old won his first Under 11s 1*Star title.

Josh Stacey and Benedict Battle it out in TTW Dragon U-13 Final
TTW's February's Dragon Tournament was held at the club today (10/2/13) in which 9 CCTTC players took part. Josh Stacey (Left) and Benedict Watson (Right) fought it out for the Under 13's final in a repeat of January's final. It was Josh who again managed to pull off the victory with a very close 2-0 win, showcasing his ever improving game. With Josh now ineligible to play further Dragon tournaments after winning 2 this season Benedict must be one of the favourites for the next Dragon event in March. A big well done to all players involved in what was an enjoyable day.
