The Raptors have won the Wales Touch Series for the 5th year!

The Wales Touch Series is the Elite Touch tournament in Wales, made up of four rounds; two men's/women's competitions, and two mixed competitions.

WTS 1 was the men's & women's competition held at St Peter's RFC in Cardiff. The Raptors men finished as runners up, and the women won the tournament after defeating Phoenix 3-0 in the final.

WTS 2 was the mixed round and was held at Newport High School Old Boys RFC in Caerleon where the mixed team were undefeated all day, and beating Phoenix 9-4 in the final.

WTS 3 went back to men's & women's where this time the women were runners up after a drop off against Kiwi Dragons, and the men took the title after beating Kiwi Dragons in the final 7-5.

The WTS was pretty much finalised before we headed to the final round at South Gower RFC. The Raptors went on to win the tournament after beating the Kiwi Dragons in the final 7-3. The final was followed by a BBQ in the sunshine!

Four wins and two runners up from six competitions! Da iawn!

The Raptors therefore retain the Wales Touch Trophy, winning it for the 5th time in the six years the WTS has been going.

We are looking forward to retaining our title in 2018!
