History of the Gwent Dragons
The Gwent Dragons side was formed in 2003 when regional rugby union teams were first introduced in Wales. The team immediately entered the Celtic League (now known as the PRO14) and started life with a bang. In their first ever season, they finished third in the competition. The year after, they came fourth.
However, life hasn’t always been smooth for the Gwent Rugby side. In each of the next four seasons, the team finished in the bottom three places of the competition. Ever since, the Gwent Rugby side have been unable to replicate those early highs.
However, the team have had some success in European competitions. Although they’ve never made it past the pools stage of the Heineken Champions Cup, they have featured in the tournament on seven occasions. Similarly, the side have featured at the semi-final stage of the European Rugby Challenge Cup three times. Sadly though, they’ve never made it to the final.
