The 2023 JD Welsh Cup final between The New Saints and Bala Town will take place at Nantporth Stadium on Sunday 30 April.

The final will get under way at 4:45 pm in Bangor and will be broadcast live on S4C, BBC iPlayer, S4C Clic and Sgorio’s Facebook and YouTube.

The defending JD Welsh Cup champions TNS beat Penybont 2-0 to reach their third consecutive final earlier this month, with Josh Daniels scoring a brace for Craig Harrison’s side at Richmond Park.

While Bala Town, who will be appearing in their second final of the 2022/23 campaign after lifting the Nathaniel MG Cup, edged past Connah’s Quay Nomads with a dramatic 3-2 win at the Essity Stadium in the other semi-final.

TNS and Bala met at this stage of the competition at Nantporth Stadium back in 2017, with the latter coming out on top with a 2-1 victory as they got their hands on the trophy for the first time.

Saints have won the cup on eight occasions – 1996, 2005, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2022.

Ticket information for the final will be released in due course.
