Hendy 17
Cardigan 20

Cardigan sneaked to a narrow victory away at Hendy.

The visitors fought back from an early 14 point deficit to keep them firmly in third place in the table.

The Teifisiders found themselves two scores adrift as Hendy started like whirlwinds with tries in the fifth and 12th minutes by number eight Gareth Price and centre Rob Richards, both converted by outside half Jamie Davies.

But Cardigan gradually settled down and opened their own account with a penalty by outside half Mike Diggle, which was followed just on half time by a good try by centre Aled Phillips which Diggle converted.

The Cardis made a far better start to the second period and took the lead for the first time when winger Aaron Owens rounded off some good handling to score a try which went unconverted.

Another Cardigan score by full back Wayne Parsons was reward for another period of pressure, but it also went unconverted.

Hendy made a late come-back with a penalty from Jamie Davies, but the Teifisiders’ defence held firm in the closing stages to earn them another good away win.
