North Wales Coast West League – six-goal Nefyn top the Premier

Callum Davidson (stripes) on the attack for Menai Bridge Tigers

NWCFA INTERMEDIATE CHALLENGE CUP

Menai Bridge Tigers 5 Cemaes Bay 2

Last season’s Intermediate Cup beaten finalists Menai Bridge are on the march again in the 2023-24 competition after last weekend’s win over Cemaes Bay.

Despite having to play around an hour with 10 men, the Tigers still roared too fiercely for their fellow North Wales Coast West Premier Division opponents.

Craig Roberts put the hosts ahead on 33 minutes following a Lewis Clayton assist, but on 35 Tom Parry was shown a second yellow card, leaving Bridge a player short for the rest of the game.

Nonetheless, Callum Davidson and Clayton added further goals for the home team before the break, Jamie Ryan Jones playing a part in both.

Tom Wood pulled one back for Cemaes on 54, but Callum Graves made it 4-1 after 65 and substitute Paul Rowlands added another on 74.

Wood notched Bay’s second after 82 to round off the day’s scoring.
