Penmaenmawr, Wales - 2nd April - Penmaenmawr Phoenix vs CPD Rhyl 1879 at Cae Sling in the semi-final of the NWCFA Intermediate Challenge Cup
The date and venue has finally been set for the 2021-22 NWCFA Intermediate Cup Final between Bangor 1876 and CPD Y Rhyl 1879.
Two new clubs representing long-time rival footballing towns will meet at Belle Vue, Rhyl, on Wednesday, August 31, kick-off 6.30 pm.
The much-awaited showdown was due to take place at the end of last season, but neither a date or venue could be established before the May 31 deadline.
Difficulties in finding a suitable neutral location for the event caused further delays beyond the expected July reschedule, but on Tuesday (August 2) a full NWCFA council meeting decided on Rhyl for August 31.
1876 and 1879 competed in different tier 4 divisions last season, Bangor in the North Wales Coast West Premier and Rhyl the North Wales Coast East Premier.
However, with the pair having been promoted, they will both form part of the tier 3 Ardal North West League in the coming campaign.
Round One: Bangor 1876 5 Llanfairfechan Town 1; Nefyn United 1 CPD Y Rhyl 1879 2
Round Two: Bangor 1876 5 Aberffraw 0; Rhyl 1879 w/o Glan Conwy
Quarter-finals: Pwllheli 4 Bangor 1876 6; Llandudno Junction 1 Rhyl 1879 8
Semi-finals: Bangor 1876 w/o Bodedern Athletic; Penmaenmawr Phoenix 0 Rhyl 1879 4
The Intermediate Cup is back on the North Wales football calendar this season after a six-year absence.
Originally known as the North Wales Coast Amateur Cup, it carried that name from 1894-95 to 1974-75.
It ran as the NWCFA Intermediate Cup from 1975-76 to 1980-81 and was then suspended for 27 years before returning in 2008-09.
The trophy was competed for over eight more seasons until it was again shelved in 2016.
Its return this campaign has not been without its problems, but at last it appears the 2022 final will be staged, albeit in the season after it was scheduled.
