Wales U20 v France U20

WELCOME
CROES0
THURSDAY 10 MARCH 2022 | UNDER-20 SIX NATIONS
Welcome one and all to Parc Eirias.
It’s always a pleasure to welcome
the next generation of players to
Colwyn Bay as they navigate their
way towards senior international
status.
North Wales has proved a
welcoming and friendly host in
recent years where some great
memories have been forged with
Wales U20s making Colwyn Bay
their home.
Since the formation of the U20
age group in 2008, a staggering 71
players have gone on to full senior
representative honours with Wales.
Ospreys hooker Dewi Lake was the
latest to join the congregation when
he earned his first Wales cap as a
second half replacement against
Ireland in the opening round of
Guinness Six Nations.
So there is every likelihood we will
today witness at least one new star
in the making.
Best of luck to both teams and I
hope everyone enjoys a wonderful
game of entertaining rugby.
Enjoy the game.

Croeso un ac oll i Barc Eirias.
Mae wastad yn bleser croesawu’r
genhedlaeth nesaf o chwaraewyr
i Fae Colwyn wrth iddyn nhw
weithio eu ffordd tuag at statws
rhyngwladol ar y lefel uchaf.
Mae Gogledd Cymru wedi bod yn
gartref cyfeillgar a chroesawgar
dros y blynyddoedd diwethaf, gydag
atgofion gwych. Mae tîm dan 20
Cymru bellach yn ystyried Bae
Colwyn yn gartref.
Ers ffurfio’r grŵp dan 20 yn
2008, mae’n anhygoel bod 71 o
chwaraewyr wedi mynd ymlaen i
gynrychioli Cymru ar y lefel uchaf.
Bachwr y Gweilch, Dewi Lake, oedd
y diweddaraf i ymuno â’r garfan
pan gafodd ei gap cyntaf i Gymru
fel eilydd yn ail hanner y gêm yn
erbyn Iwerddon yn rownd agoriadol
pencampwriaeth Chwe Gwlad
Guinness.
Felly mae’n debygol y byddwn ni’n
gweld o leiaf un seren newydd yn
cael ei chreu heddiw.
Pob lwc i’r ddau dîm a gobeithio y
bydd pawb yn mwynhau gêm wych
o rygbi penigamp.
