An opening stand of 113 from James Taube (60) and Aled Howell (54) paved the way for Llangennech to clinch a league and cup ‘double’ in the All Wales Sport Midweek League competitions with a 25 run victory over Pontarddulais in the Cup final.

Dafydd Davies, Will Jones, Tom Fowler and Arwel Thomas took one wicket each for Bont whose reply never really got going and closed on 138-6 after being reduced to 76-5 at one stage.
Matthew Williams (40 not out) and Tom Fowler (38) supplied the bulk of the runs for Pontarddulais as wickets fell to Gethin Long (3-27) and Iwan Hicks (2-15).
