David Spear Delivers the Dragons To Ebbw Vale

After last Friday’s first competitive home game away from Rodney Parade, the Dragons would like to thank Ebbw Vale RFC, Blaenau Gwent CB and supporters for helping make the fixture a success.

The Guinness Pro14 match at Ebbw Vale was a significant milestone in the region’s progress and the activity in the build-up and on the night, generated many positive comments as well as an attendance comparable with similar fixtures at Rodney Parade.

The Dragons have an important responsibility to develop rugby across the region, to engage with all our communities and build their support base. Recent new initiatives with Torfaen, Blaenau Gwent and soon to be announced with Caerphilly demonstrate deeper integration into these areas.

Award-winning commercial vehicle dealer David Spear provided logistical support to help the Dragons for the recent fixture switch to Eugene Cross Park, ensuring the transition to the north of the region was as smooth as possible, by providing a minibus and Luton van to transport staff and all the equipment required for the match day, on multiple trips up the A467.

Head of Operations Mark Jones said, “Playing a fixture away from Rodney Parade is a challenge for our small team, but once again it was pleasing to see the event delivered successfully. It’s essential for our preparations that our logistics are capable of supporting the necessary components for our operations as well as the commercial, grounds and team aspects of playing a professional game in a new environment.

“It’s great to have such long-standing support from a market leading firm such as David Spear helping us achieve this. They’re passionate about rugby and the Dragons so we’re delighted to get their backing on the road and at home.”
