Illtydian Under 8's play at the Cardiff Arms Park! Friday 23 January 2009
Parents and coaches were proud to come along to Cardiff Arms Park to support the Illtydian U8's team when they were invited by the Cardiff Blues to play an exhibition match at half time against Beddau U8's.
Cardiff Blues were playing against the Italian side Calvisano in the Heineken European Cup. The young players of both teams were cheered on enthusiastically by approximately 18,000 supporters in what was a great occasion. It was an exciting game, enjoyed by all.

The start of Tag Rugby at Old Illtydian RFC September 2007
 
Mini Tag Rugby Festival with Old Illtydians, Cardiff Blues, Cardiff Sports and the Star Leisure Centre with rugby star Chris Czekai from Wales and Cardiff Blues!
Young people (boys and girls) aged from 7 to 13 years were invited to come along to the Star Leisure Centre one Sunday in 2007 to meet Wales and Cardiff Blues rugby star Chris Czekai, in a Mini Tag Rugby open day organised by Old Illtydians, Cardiff Blues, Cardiff Sport and the Star Leisure Centre. It turned out to be a fantastic afternoon of rugby, thanks to support from Chris Ower and the Cardiff Blues!

OLD ILLTYDIAN JUNIOR & MINI RUGBY FESTIVAL 2007
 
The Old Illtydians hosted a Junior & Mini Rugby Festival at St Illtyd's College on 26 March 2007 as part of their ongoing recruitment of young players aged 7 - 12 for their Mini Rugby section for 2007/2008.

The Illts along with guest Liam Scott of the Cardiff Blues Community Development team welcomed along both existing and new potential junior and mini team members for a morning of training.

Old Illtydian RFC are one of Cardiff’s most successful, well established and progressive rugby clubs and we are investing in the future of young rugby players, fully supported by Cardiff Blues Community Rugby Development Team.

This was a great day out for all budding rugby players and their families.
