3 members of the Cardiff Dragons u12s team represented the South West
Conference u11s team in Interconference Tournament in Hull over the May Bank Holiday. The Tournament which lasted 3 days involved teams from u11s,u13s,u15s and u17s from the South West,Northen,South East, Midlands and Scotland Conferences.

Callum Buglass,Owen Griffiths and Jack Randall were members of the South West u11 team that started the tournament with a stunning 9-1 victory against the South East.The Northen Conference were their next opponents and again the South West turned in other fine performance winning the game 4-0.

On Sunday the team only had the one game facing the Midlands Conference where a good first period from the South West who were 3-0 up at the break enabled them to see out the game claiming a 3-1 victory and a place in the u11s final.

The final on Monday was between the South West and the Midlands in a repeat of the previous days game and this turned out to be an end to end nailbiter. The South West found themselves 1-0 up after the 1st period but found themselves under immense pressure in the 2nd and it was no surprise when the Midlands found the equalizer.This proved to be the final goal of normal play so then it went into 5 minute sudden death overtime.Again the South West had to soak up the pressure with the Midlands hitting the post with only 1 minute gone. As the overtime came to the end the South West thought they had won it with only 14 seconds remaining but the goal was ruled out.As the puck dropped for the final face off, it fell to a South West player who buried his shot into the top corner with only 6 seconds to go.This sparked off jubilous scenes between both players and spectators in what was a truly great end to a great game. Callum,Owen and Jack all played big parts in winning this Interconference tital for the South West u11s team and did themselves and their Cardiff club team proud.
