One of Tumble's most notable players, was Welsh international Archie Skym. Although Skym had already moved to Llanelli RFC at the time he was first capped, he came to the attention of larger clubs when representing Tumble. He joined the team from a local side at Drefach, and in December 1926 left Tumble for the Scarlets. ["A Century of Welsh Rugby Players 1880-1980", Wayne Thomas; Ansell (1979) pg. 72]
