Rugby has been played in Neath for over 140 years and Neath is without doubt the most influential town in Welsh rugby history. The teams, the players and the personalities have a history of being the first and being the best. Through the innovation and industry of the people, Neath Rugby has been at the fore of Wales' national sport from day one. When you look at the facts there is no disputing this.
At Neath, the players are chiselled out of granite while the supporters are known for their knowledge, humour and above all the ability to see the game through only one eye ! a black one ! There is no shame in this, just a long lasting pride that will live for ever. Players and supporters will for all eternity remember that great sound NEATH NEATH NEATH NEATH NEATH NEATH NEATH NEATH !
