Welsh Rugby
Welsh International rugby
Welsh Rugby is one of the most popular sports in Wales with thousands fleeing to Cardiff when they play at ther Principality Stadium to watch Wales play some of the biggest teams in the world of Rugby. The Principality Stadium is often full when Wales play and often Cardiff goes into grid lock because if you cannot get a ticket thousands just turn up to Cardiff to watch the game in local pubs and bars. With Wales having a competitive team to challege against some of the biggest teams in the world, fans often leave felling that the team has preformed very well.
The Ospreys
The Ospreys play their trade at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea, They are one of the top teams in Wales along with the 3 other big clubs in Wales. They have been playing in the Liberty ever since it opened. Before that they were two separate teams, Swansea and Neath. They then formed to make the Ospreys. Their main rivals are the Scarlets, They play each other every Boxing day. This match is always a sell out because both teams are so close to each other.
The Scarlets
The Scarlets based in Llanelli, play in Parc Y Scarlets. A relativly new Stadium which was made mainly for the Scarlets was a masive upgrade coming from their old stadium Stradey Parc, an old stadium on its last legs. Now playing in a new stadium aganst top opposition from around europe, what more would Scarlets fans want. The Scarlets main rivals are of course the ospreys who play roughly about 20 minutes up the road, so when the two teams play each other they havent got to go far.
