Carmarthen Quins Rugby Football Club (Template:Lang-cy) are one of two Welsh rugby union clubs based in Carmarthen in West Wales, the other being Carmarthen Athletic.
They currently play in the Welsh Premier Division and are a feeder club for the Scarlets regional team.[2]
Club history
During the 2005–06 season Carmarthen Quins were relegated from the Welsh Premier Division and placed in Division One West, making a return to the Premier league after winning the West league in 2008–09. Carmarthen were to face Blackwood, winners of Division One East in a play-off for promotion; but because Blackwood's ground was deemed not to meet WRU standards for the Premier league, the game was forfeited.[3]
