Newsflash
Congratulations go to Rhondda Royals who this season have been officially crowned 2009/10 champions of Division One of the UCL. They were closely pushed by an excellent Rhiwbina, who fell just short and so had to settle for second place. Rhondda proved to be the best team over the course of the season and it was a fitting way for them to say farewell to a number of key players who will sadly be departing to pursue careers and college/university courses elsewhere.

Ty-Gwyn, Llanelli were the Division Two champions having fairly comfortably won the division from their main challengers Swansea Elim, Inter Aberdare and ABC Ammanford. Ty Gwyn have led the division from the off and despite the odd hiccup never looked likely to relinquish their lead.

Ty-Gwyn were also crowned cup winners having disposed of Rhiwbina 2-0 in a closely fought final at Afan Lido. Rhiwbina have therefore finished as bridesmaids in both the race for the Division One title and the UCL cup but can be massively proud of their achievents this season in getting so near, yet so far.

So that's it for another season that saw the standard of the UCL improve yet again and whatever the format for next season I'm sure we will see a continuance of this imrpovement by the participating teams.

Have a great summer break people, rest those weary limbs and we look forward to seeing everyone refreshed and raring to go in September!

As the UCL is expanding we are always interested to hear from Churches who may wish to become part of this successful league. As this league gets stronger so the interest is growing. Due to its terrific success, we envisage receiving more applications in the coming seasons. So what are the major considerations you will need to take into account before applying to join the UCL? Firstly, your team MUST be connected to a particular church or group of churches. The Pastor/Minister will be required to sign to that effect. Here is the additional criteria that you will need to consider carefully.
 

  • Firstly, you must know that you will be able to sustain a squad and therefore a side for a full season.
  • You need to ensure that you will be able to sustain a squad big enough to cope with the demands of an eight month season.
  • You will also have to accept the travelling that is involved with this being a South Wales league. You will see that you may be required to travel as far as Ammanford in the West to Cardiff in the East.
  • Also, you would have to accept the Christian principles on which the league is founded and aim to meet those. After all, this is a Church league where the majority of players are practicing Christians.
  • Furthermore, all matches are to be played on a Saturday morning, and on grass. Astroturph will only be allowed in extreme circumstances, but certainly NOT on a regular basis.
  • There is a mandatory requirement that, in order to be part of the UCL Church League, ALL teams in the UCL Church League agree to affiliate to The West Wales Football Association.
