Brynamman RFC has made the heart-wrenching choice to cancel their last two matches of the season after the sudden passing of their beloved vice-captain, Harri Morgan. This decision was not made lightly, but with the well-being of the players and Harri’s family in mind. They had hoped to reschedule the games, but unfortunately, their request couldn’t be accommodated.
Harri, who touched many hearts, was not only a passionate player but also a cherished cousin to Wales captain Jac Morgan. Jac expressed his grief and love in a heartfelt tribute, sharing that Harri was like a best friend and an inspiration.
Despite this setback, Brynamman RFC has received overwhelming support and understanding from their would-be opponents, Pencoed RFC and Aberavon Quins RFC. There’s a sense of unity within the rugby community during this tough time.
In honour of Harri, a fundraiser has been initiated, with his brothers and friends gearing up to run the Swansea Half Marathon. The support for the family has been immense and deeply appreciated.
Brynamman RFC intends to hold a special fixture on May 9th before their presentation day, with more details to follow. The club extends its deepest gratitude to everyone for their kind messages and unwavering support.
Sending love to all affected and reminding everyone to reach out if they’re struggling – there is always someone willing to listen. Harri may no longer be on the pitch, but his spirit and love for rugby live on. Cysga’n dawel Harri. Caru ti. 🏉💔
