LEAGUE HISTORY – THE STATS

We thought this might be a nice time to take a look back at the league’s history, which stretches back to 2007 under the former name of the Penygroes and District Netball League.

The competition became known as the Gwynedd and Anglesey League in 2016.

Arfon Ladies are the most successful team since the league began, winning 12 titles in all.
