As part of their pre-season preparations, the Scarlets announced they would face both Llandovery and Carmarthen Quins on 6 September. The day would see the Scarlets play 30 minutes against Llandovery followed by 30 minutes against Carmarthen Quins (with the two Super Rygbi Cymru sides facing each other in a final 30 minute game).[1] In the end, the games were played as two 40-minute halves and the contest between Llandovery and Carmarthen Quins was cancelled.[2]
