A big thankyou to all the players and coaches for yet another succesfull campaign. The true supporters who have stuck by the side through thick and thin have witnessed once again a side who are not only 'proud' to wear the 'Green and White' jersey but play 'rugby footbal'.

We have been rewarded with some of the best 'football' witnessed at the park since the early 90's. This has to be down to the hard work put in by the players on training field and the quality of our coaching staff. Both Paul and Mike(Boxer) deserve praise for what they have achieved in a very short space of time.

The 'stars' once again lead by Ieuan have been a joy to watch, I for one cannot wait for next season. Lets hope the players stick together (as eyes are alredy watching) during the summer break and the club can add to an already special group of players.
95% of this side are from the town and have been through the Youth side! With the current crop of youth players also achieving promotion for the second season in succession, they also deserve the SAME PRAISE. Lets hope we will see some competing for places in the first side next season. Having watched a few matches, Mark Rossiter and Beefey have done a superb job.
With successess in the Senior, Youth and Under 12's we must surely be one of the most enviable set-ups in Wales! Long may it continue..

Unfortunatley I'm away on the weekend and can't join the promotion celebrations, i'll be there in spirit.. Have a few beers for me and once again enjoy the moment. ..

EBBW HERE WE COME!!!

I would just like to add my congratulations to all the rest. Everyone has done the club proud and the friendliness, atmosphere and general togetherness makes " Aber " a special club.
I am away this weekend but will remain in touch through my brother.

Well done Aber. Haven't managed to visit The Park this season but look for the results avidly every Saturday night - sometimes have to wait to Sunday for satisfaction. The papers in Eastbourne are not very good at covering SE Wales rugby. Keep up the good work next season, it is good to learn that the junior teams are also doing well.
