Thirteen teams will make up the North East Wales FA run North Wales Women’s Football League this season.

News is still awaited on the new North Wales Coast FA Women’s League, although eight clubs are expected to take part.

The NWWFL membership was announced today.

It could end up being one division of 13 teams or split into two sections.

There is a welcome return for Llandudno, who resigned from the Welsh Premier Women’s League last season, and a first appearance for Welshpool Town.

Clubs which have registered are:
Airbus
Amlwch Town
Bethel
Connah’s Quay Nomads
Corwen
Holywell Town
Llandudno
Llanfair United
NFA
Northop Hall
Penrhyn Bay
Welshpool Town
Wrexham AFC

Those expected to feature in the tier 3 NWCFA League are:
Bangor 1876
Caernarfon Town
Denbigh Town
Kinmel Bay
Llanystumdwy
Mountain Rangers
Pwllheli
CPD Y Rhyl 1879

The 2020-21 campaign is seen as a ‘transition season’ for North Wales Women’s football ahead of 2021-22, when a new pyramid system is introduced.

Clubs have restarted socially-distanced training, but no start date for matches has yet been confirmed.
