Great news for this season’s North Wales Coast League tier 4 champions – they are both going up!
East Premier Division winners St Asaph City and West Premier kings Bethesda Athletic have both secured tier 3 licences for the 2023-24 campaign.
The pair will now enter the Ardal North West League.
The FAW Tier 3 First Instance Body met yesterday to consider the licensing applications for the 2023/24 season.
The Panel assessed 98 applicants for the Tier 3 certification and clubs were assessed against a number of infrastructure and personnel criteria.
