There is always something special about a village football club doing well.

And special is certainly the word to describe how the 2021-22 campaign went for Mynydd Isa FC.

The Flintshire marvels have achieved what can only be hailed as their most successful season ever as a grassroots community club since forming in 1984.

Achievements

And the Under-16’s, Mynydd Isa Dragons, won the Flintshire Youth League in their final season.

As a club, Mynydd Isa has continued to grow and this year registered 380 players.

The girls section now has five age groups and both the ladies and vets teams have had great seasons.

The club has contributed to a new 3G pitch, a new stand and ground improvements, with the aim of reaching to a tier 3 standard.
