Guests included newly promoted Bridgend coach and former Ospreys flanker Steve Tandy, former Wales, Maesteg and Bridgend hooker Wayne Hall and newly capped Welsh prop Ryan Bevington.

Talented scrum-half Rhys Bevan was delighted to receive the Most Promising Player of the Year for his excellent performances throughout the season.
Players’ Player of the Year went to someone who has come on leaps and bounds within a year and despite the closeness of the voting, proved a popular choice. Richard Teesdale scooped the prize.
