Christmas to remember for young Scarlets fans

No less than 49 teams attended matchdays at Parc y Scarlets in December and January and participated in pre-match festivals, pre-match parades, guards of honour as well as half-time TAG.

The Welsh side's only GUINNESS PRO12 home fixture took place on Saturday January 3, with the Scarlets emerging 22-10 winners against local rivals the Ospreys.

But with a number of other games taking place at the Parc Y Scarlets over the past few weeks, including last Saturday against European giants Toulon, the Scarlets community team were keen to organise a range of activities for their young supporters.

Scarlets community manager Daniel Vaughan said: "It's not every day we see a team with so many household names here at Parc y Scarlets and it certainly added to the experience for the hundreds of children that took part in both the pre-match festival and played half time TAG on the main field.

"We had a great day of junior and mini rugby here at Parc y Scarlets last Saturday. It's always a pleasure to welcome teams from right across the region and beyond to enjoy matchdays with us here."

Parc y Scarlets offers a unique matchday experience and the community team are looking forward to the upcoming GUINNESS PRO12 fixtures, including a Valentine's Day clash against Connacht, and an opportunity to welcome even more stars of the future.
