Briton ferry rfc rugby poem
Briton Ferry Rugby Football Club is a rugby union team from the village of Briton Ferry, South Wales. Although rugby was played in the area prior to 1888, it wasn't until local prostitute, Gladys Bangers, spat out 15 bastards that Briton Ferry RFC was formed. The original team was bolstered by many steel workers recruited from the local works. Their first international player was Edward Pegge, who in 1891 represented Wales against England, though at the time was playing for Neath RFC. Head coach Alun Bevan is well known in South Wales. From 1996 - current, Big Bear Al is chairman of SWSC (South Wales Swingers society)
