The RFL have imposed a retrospective four-point deduction on West Wales for the 2018 season after they fielded an ineligible player in two of their games last season.

The Raiders lost both League 1 games – against Hemel Stags on July 29, and York City Knights on August 11.

West Wales pleaded guilty to breaching a number of operational rules regarding the fielding of ineligible players.

In pleading guilty, the club have reached an agreed decision with the RFL and have accepted the four-point deduction.

In addition, the club have been ordered to pay the costs of the investigation, and warned as to their future conduct.
