​Am dymor rhyfeddol i dîm Dan 13 Clwb Rygbi Cymry Caerdydd! O gaeau ymarfer mwdlyd mis Medi i borfa sanctaidd Parc yr Arfau, mae’r grŵp hwn o fechgyn ifanc wedi cynrychioli’r Clwb gyda thalent, dewrder a balchder aruthrol.

​Gyda 29 o fechgyn wedi gwisgo’r crys ar wahanol adegau yn ystod y flwyddyn, dyfnder y garfan a’r ysbryd tîm oedd gwir sylfaen ein llwyddiant. Gyda’i gilydd, fe lwyddon nhw i lywio rhediad cyffrous o gemau, gan chwarae 25 gêm yn ogystal â chalendr llawn o dwrnameintiau a theithiau.

​Dyma gipolwg yn ôl ar uchafbwyntiau ymgyrch fythgofiadwy...

​CWPAN CAERDYDD : Rhediad Gwefreiddiol i Barc yr Arfau
​Prif stori ein tymor, heb os, oedd ein rhediad campus yng Nghwpan Caerdydd. Dangosodd y bechgyn yn gynnar iawn eu bod o ddifrif, gan chwarae rygbi gwych i orffen ar frig ein grŵp ar ôl buddugoliaethau arbennig dros wrthwynebwyr caled yn St Peter’s, Beddau, a Cambrian.

​Fe brofodd y rowndiau nesaf gymeriad y bechgyn i’r eithaf.

​Rownd Wyth Olaf: Brwydr frwd ac agos yn erbyn Llanilltud Faerdre, lle cloddion nhw’n ddwfn er mwyn symud ymlaen yn y gystadleuaeth.
​Y Rownd Gynderfynol: Perfformiad godidog o dan y goleuadau ar Heol Sardis, gan sicrhau buddugoliaeth gofiadwy yn erbyn St Alban’s i sicrhau ein lle yn y rownd derfynol.
​Y Rownd Derfynol: Daeth y diwrnod mawr ar gae eiconig Parc yr Arfau yn erbyn Pontyclun. Er i ni fethu â chipio’r fuddugoliaeth, fe ymladdodd y bechgyn yn ddewr tan y chwiban olaf. Fe wnaethon nhw adael popeth ar y cae, ac ni allen ni fod yn fwy balch o’u medalau ail safle.

​AR Y FFORDD : Twrnameintiau a Theithio i Lundain
​Y tu hwnt i’r cwpan, aeth y tîm Dan 13 â’u dawn rygbi ar daith, gan feithrin cyfeillgarwch a fydd yn para am oes.
​Fe chwaraeon ni yn erbyn rhai o dalentau rygbi’r rhanbarth yn nhwrnameintiau Cil-y-coed a Phorthcawl, gan roi perfformiadau gwych dros y ddau ddiwrnod.

​Uchafbwynt ein teithiau, fodd bynnag, oedd y daith i Lundain. Teithiodd y bechgyn dros y bont ar gyfer gêm drionglog wych yn erbyn Chiswick a Hampstead, gan arddangos rygbi Cymreig ar ei orau. I gloi penwythnos anhygoel, aeth y garfan i wylio Harlequins yn erbyn Caerloyw, gan fwynhau'r awyrgylch proffesiynol a chael eu hysbrydoli ar gyfer y dyfodol.

Y TYMOR MEWN RHIFAU
​29 – Nifer y chwaraewyr a gynrychiolodd y Clwb y tymor hwn.
25 – Nifer y gemau llawn a chwaraewyd.
1 – Carfan anhygoel i fod yn rhan ohoni.

DIOLCH O GALON!
​Nid yw tymor mor llwyddianus â hwn yn digwydd ar ddamwain. Diolch anferth i’r holl hyfforddwyr, rheolwyr tîm, ac yn enwedig i’r rhieni a’r teuluoedd sydd wedi cefnogi’n ddi-guro o ochr y cae (ym mhob math o dywydd Cymreig!) i gadw’r tîm hwn i fynd.

​Yn bwysicaf oll, llongyfarchiadau i’r bechgyn. Rydych chi wedi chwarae gyda chalon, wedi datblygu’n aruthrol fel chwaraewyr, ac wedi cynrychioli CRCC gyda balchder. Mwynhewch seibiant yr haf – rydym eisoes yn edrych ymlaen at beth sydd gan y tymor nesaf i’w gynnig i dîm Dan 14!

What a phenomenal season it has been for the Clwb Rygbi Cymry Caerdydd Under 13s! From the muddy training pitches in September to the hallowed turf of the Cardiff Arms Park, this group of young men has represented the Clwb with immense talent, grit, and pride.

With 29 boys pulling on the jersey at various points throughout the year, the squad depth and team spirit have been the real foundation of our success. Together, they navigated a gruelling and exciting schedule, playing 25 games in addition to a packed calendar of tournaments and tours.

Here is a look back at the highlights of an unforgettable campaign...

THE CARDIFF CUP : A Thrilling Run to the Arms Park
The defining story of our season was undoubtedly our magnificent run in the Cardiff Cup. The boys showed early on that they meant business, playing some scintillating rugby to top our group with fantastic victories over tough opposition in St Peters, Beddau, and Cambrian.

The knockout stages tested the boys' character to the limit.

Quarter-Final: A fiercely contested, tough battle against Llantwit Fardre where the boys dug deep to advance.
Semi-Final: A spectacular performance under the lights at Sardis Road, securing a memorable win against St Albans to book our place in the final.
The Final: The big day arrived at the iconic Cardiff Arms Park against Pontyclun. While we sadly came up just short on the scoreboard, the boys fought valiantly until the final whistle. They left everything on the pitch, and we couldn't be prouder of their runners-up medal.

ON THE ROAD : Tournaments & London Tour
Beyond the cup, the U13s took their brand of rugby on the road, building bonds that will last a lifetime.
We tested ourselves against some of the best regional talent at the Caldicot and Porthcawl tournaments, putting in fantastic performances across both days.
The absolute highlight of our travels, however, was the London Tour. The boys headed across the bridge for a brilliant triangular fixture against Chiswick and Hampstead, showcasing Welsh rugby at its finest. To cap off an incredible weekend, the squad headed to watch Harlequins vs. Gloucester, soaking up the professional atmosphere and getting inspired for the future.

A HUGE THANK YOU!
A season this successful doesn’t happen by accident. A massive thank you to all the coaches, team managers, and especially the parents and families whose unwavering support on the touchline (in all kinds of Welsh weather!) keeps this team running.

Most importantly, congratulations to the boys. You have played with heart, developed immensely as players, and represented CRCC with distinction. Enjoy the summer break—we already can't wait to see what the Under 14s season brings!
