During this period both organisations created an initiative called the ‘Tata Steel Wizards League’.

The initiative was created to provide children with the opportunity to play both competitive rugby and netball in term time.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tata Steel Wizards League is back, and back with a new donation of kit for all Port Talbot Primary Schools.

Andrew V John, Aberavon Chairman commented.

“We are extremely grateful to Tata Steel for their backing of the programme for all the local Primary Schools. It has been possible with their support to provide the schools with new playing kit for both rugby and netball but also it enables us to deliver the Tata Steel Wizards League once again.

"So, many thanks on behalf of Aberavon RFC and all the Port Talbot Primary Schools for Tata Steel’s support.”

Tata Steel’s Public Affairs & Community Manager, Lewis Clark, added:

“As a business we’re delighted to once again be partnering with Aberavon RFC on this scheme – which provides a great opportunity for young people across Neath Port Talbot to get involved in rugby and netball, encouraging healthy and active lifestyles.

“A massive thank you to Aberavon Wizards for all of their efforts in organising the league. We’re excited to get under way and wish all of the schools and children participating the best of luck.”

The first block of fixtures in the Tata Steel Wizards League was played on Thursday 12th October, 2023.
