In a contest organised by Rotary, 51 contestants from 15 schools across South Wales came together on Friday 8th March to fight out the title for Youth Speaks Champions for South Wales. The venue was Barry and Vale College who kindly agreed to host the event. The competition was held in two age groups with Intermediates representing those aged 11 to 14. And the Seniors those 15 to 17. The two competitions were run in parallel with judges Terry Brooks, Joe McEvoy, and Eileen Younghusband BEM judging the Intermediates while Alun Cairns MP, Phil McCaffrey, and Glyn Morris judged the Seniors.
In a tightly fought contest with teams of Chairman, Speaker, and Proposer of the Vote of Thanks, the intermediate team from St John Lloyd Catholic Comprehensive School in Llanelli consisting of Blaze Roper, James McMillan, and Greg David were deemed the winners and go through to the next round, while the team of Nia Fenn, Lois Aled, and Caleb Darwin of Ysgol Gyfun Bro Morgannwg in Barry were the Runners-Up.
