Former Bedwas and Caerphilly player Dollman gets testimonial year

Former Bedwas and Caerphilly RFC player Phil Dollman is set to receive a testimonial year to mark ten years playing with English Premiership high-flyers Exeter Chiefs.

Dollman, who spent three seasons with the Dragons after plying his trade with Bedwas and Caerphilly, moved to Exeter in 2009 after failing to secure a contract in Wales.

He has since gone on to play a pivotal role in the Chiefs’ rise to the top of the English game.

The 33-year-old full-back starred in the club’s 2017 Championship winning side, and was unlucky not to follow it up with a Wales cap after he was forced to pull out of Wales’ tour to Tonga and Samoa last summer.
