Early history

Whitland RFC is thought to have been founded around 1910, but little verifiable information exists to support a definite date. Club development stalled during the Great War years, but in the 1919/20 season Whitland RFC took part in the Pembrokeshire Knock Out Cup. As with many Welsh teams, the inter-war years were difficult and the team disbanded in January 1930. The club reformed for the 1938-39 season and has existed in that form since. Mike Phillips, Jonathan Davies and James Davies brother of Jonathan played their club rugby for Whitland as have Aled Davies and Scott Williams.
