The ball was passed from one Terry Davies to the other at the former British Lion’s home last Friday.
The proceeds from the Charity Night will be going to the British Heart Foundation and Teenage Cancer Trust.

rugby ball signed by the Quinnell Family, Brass Miners’ Lamp, Cwmgwili Colliery Plate (limited number), South Wales Collieries Plate and a Bottle of House of Commons Whisky.
