John Hardy playground

Rhyl & District RFC proudly unveiled their new children’s playground at their Tynewydd Road base.

The project was undertaken in memory of former player and coach, John Hardy, who passed away suddenly at the end of 2018.

Club members joined forces with John’s family & friends to raise funds for the project through a variety of activities such as the 3 Peaks Challenge, donations from supporters, club members and local businesses and organisations, grant funding and a dinner hosted by Wales and British & Irish Lions rugby legend Ryan Jones.

The end result is a magnificent facility which features slides, a climbing wall, an inclined walkway, a basket swing and 2 spring riders, all in an enclosed area with safety flooring where children under the age of 12 can play safely.

Club Chairman Tony Evans said “we are all very proud of this addition to our community club which is a lasting memorial to John who is greatly missed”.
