Club manager Nia Evans has warned of a "bleak" future for her rugby club as player numbers continue to fall, urging the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) to increase support for grassroots organizations.

Evans said the decline in participation threatens the club's viability and called on the governing body to provide more resources and strategic assistance to community-level teams.

The concerns were reported by journalist Elen Davies on Friday, October 30, 2026.
