The Maltings Supports University & Grass Roots Rugby Teams


With a Company Chairman who is a former PE Teacher, it is not surprising to hear that The Maltings has a close connection and affinity with sport. Throughout our 30 year history, we have always looked for opportunities to support local sports teams and community initiatives.

The most recent teams to have benefited from a sponsorship deal with The Maltings are, Cardiff MetropolitanRFC and Monmouth RFC.

Currently sitting third in the newly created Swalec Championship division, Cardiff Metropolitan RFC are an exciting team of University students that are renowned for playing high risk expansive rugby. Whilst the first XV are the headline makers, it is important not to forget that there are five other senior teams actively fulfilling fixtures every week.

After successfully securing promotion last season, Monmouth RFC are consolidating their position in Division 4 East of the Welsh National League structure. The popular rugby club is situated in the heart of the picturesque welsh border town, and is a central focal point for numerous children and adults within the local community. Clearly the clubs hierarchy understands the importance of nurturing young talent, as Monmouth RFC run an impressive young rugby structure – consisting of teams of every age group from Under 7-s to Under 16’s.

Everyone at The Maltings is extremely proud to be supporting the development of rugby union in Wales, and we would like to wish both Cardiff Metropolitan RFC & Monmouth RFC the best of luck for the remainder of this season.
