Llanelli Scarlets

The Scarlets are one of the four professional Welsh regional rugby union teams. Based in Llanelli, south-west Wales the team play at the Parc y Scarlets stadium. They play in the Pro12, as well as competing in the Anglo-Welsh Cup and the European Rugby Champions Cup (which replaced the Heineken Cup from the 2014-15 season). The region was originally named the Llanelli Scarlets but was renamed at the start of the 2008–09 rugby season, following the lead of the Ospreys in 2005.
