League leaders Kenfig Hill, nicknamed ‘The Mules’ make a first league visit to Broadacre this weekend.

The Mules have already accrued 4 bonus points in 2 wins at home to Seven Sisters and Ystalyfera and a 39-32 defeat at Bonymaen to sit 3 points clear of Trebanos at the top of the table. Last weekend they again defeated Seven Sisters away in the Swalec Plate. Kenfig Hill were formed in 1897, disbanded and then reformed after World War 1. They have reared 14 Wales Internationals and 4 British Lions in their history. In recent seasons, they were promoted as runners up from 3 South West in 2010/11, again from 2 West in 2011/12 and for the last two seasons have finished 5th in 1 West, so will represent another stern test for Dunvant.
Dunvant, after a slow start to the season against Skewen and Waunarlwydd, have at last found their form with a 6 tries to 2 victory at Cwmllynfell and 4 tries to 2 win against Waunarlwydd in the Plate last weekend. Should be another thriller at Broadacre this Saturday.
With our 2nd XV having no league game this weekend, they are making the reverse trip to Kenfig Hill to play a 2nd XV friendly up there.

Backs: 15 Mitchell Ford (Capt.), 14 Tom Davies, 13 Sam Crowley, 12 Scott Watkins, 11 Adam Williams-Parry, 10 Aled Lewis, 9 Sam Gallagher
