Rugby players and fans have been showing their support for Swalec Finals Day by tweeting what they think makes Welsh grassroots rugby so special.
International players such as Sam Warburton, who played for Rhiwbina, Taulupe Faletau – Cross Keys – and Gethin Jenkins, for Pontypridd, all began their rugby careers for local teams, just proving the calibre of talent throughout Wales.
