2005 Tour of Fiji & New Zealand
Singapore, New Zealand and Fiji, in the summer the Lions were whitewashed by the All Blacks. Nine games across the tour and not one lost by either the 1st or 2nd XV. A future Lion, Rhys Webb, was in the party. Waikato, Opotiki, Rotorua, Otorohanga, Wellington and Upper Hutt, then Beachcomber Island to finish.

2001 Tour of Australia
Five coaches and 36 players flew out on 19 July 2001, weeks after losing the Welsh Schools Cup final to Llandovery College at the Brewery Field in Keith Crockett's last game in charge. Andrew Brown captained. Singapore first, then Brisbane to Sydney by road. Both the 1st and 2nd XV played six games and both won all six — the Invincibles.

1998 Tour of South Africa
Brynteg's first southern-hemisphere venture. Keith Crockett at the helm, Pete Cavalli as tour manager and Steve Hiscocks, Paul Bowen, Wayne Morris and Rob Sage as assistant coaches. James Bater captained the side, with 1997 captain Gareth Williams returning a year after leaving school to play flanker. Fixtures included Paarl Gim and the Tygerberg township — and by Gareth's memory the tour party never tasted defeat.
