The Aberavon Sportsmens' Club
The Aberavon Sportsmens' Club (ASC) has been established to raise and donate funds for the development of sport in Port Talbot. Through a variety of fundraising activities, the ASC seeks to donate a minimum of £1,000 each month to a sports club within the town. The sports clubs need to be in attendance for the dinner, in order to be entered into the cash draw. Additionally, the ASC also seeks to provide free sports kit and equipment to every school in Port Talbot over an 18 month period from November 2011 onwards.

Aberavon RFC were delighted to be drawn as the first recipients of the £1000 prize draw at last month's Sportsmens Club lunch at Blancos, the idea of a monthly lunch to help stimulate sport within clubs and schools in Port Talbot is a great concept and deserves support from the clubs themselves and the business community within the town.
