NORTH WALES COAST EAST LEAGUE – MAY 3-4

Premier Division

NFA 2 Cerrigydrudion 1

NFA are champions of the North Wales Coast East Premier Division at the first attempt.

Promoted to Tier 4 this season, the Rhyl side clinched the title with a 2-1 victory over Cerrigydrudion on Saturday.

Antonio Jacovelli’s 23rd goal of the season set the hosts on their way in the 33rd minute from a Matthew Robinson assist.

Jacovelli turned provider for NFA’s second goal four minutes later, Ryan Roberts with the finish.

Tom Watkin-Jones replied for Cerrig on 65 minutes, but that was the end of the scoring as NFA celebrated their 17th win in 23 league matches.

Abergele 2 Llandudno Junction 1

Gele ensured they finished outside of the bottom two with a surprise 2-1 success over third-place Junction.

Substitute Thomas Brogden, normally a goalkeeper, delivered a 97th minute winner for the hosts as an outfield player.

Jack Nettleton had edged the Junction ahead on 25 minutes before Jack Lloyd-Williams levelled soon after.

A 10-goal thriller saw champions Bow finish up winners as well as ensuring they end the campaign unbeaten in 20 league matches – 19 wins and a draw.

Friday’s result at Bastion Gardens also virtually assured Llandudno Amateurs are runners-up with Y Glannau third.

A scintillating first half at Prestatyn ended three-apiece.

Aaron Boyle put Bow one-up on 13 minutes, Greg Hall doubled the lead after 33, then Ashley Bamber (35 and 38) and Osian Williams (41) put Glannau in front with three goals in six minutes before Loui O’Carroll equalised on 45.

Harrison Bellis nudged the visitors back into the lead with his 63rd goal of the season eight minutes into the second half.

Back came Bow, Robbie Parry putting away a penalty on the hour before O’Carroll struck after 70 and Kyle Robb with 90+1 gone.

Bamber was dismissed on 90 for a second yellow card.

Glan Conwy 3 Llysfaen 2

David Hansom notched a double and Oliver Carey netted from the spot to earn Glan Conwy a narrow triumph over Llysfaen.

Sean Sheridan scored both for the visitors.
