North Wales Coast East: Kinmel Bay promoted! Prestatyn Wanderers earn first win of 2026

NORTH WALES COAST EAST LEAGUE – APRIL 4, 2026

Premier Division

Kinmel Bay 10 CPD Bro Cernyw 0

Promotion was secured in style by Kinmel Bay as they made sure of a top-two finish in the Premier Division.
Bay are now set to play in Tier 3 for the first time since 2014-15 when they were part of the former Welsh Alliance.
They did feature in the Welsh Alliance in 2018-19 and 2019-20, but that was in Division 2, which was classed as Tier 4.
Members of the North Wales Coast East Premier for the past four seasons, Bay were runners-up last term, while this campaign they have lost just once in 19 matches.
Llandudno Amateurs remain favourites to win the 2025-26 Premier title on 47 points from 18 matches, while Kinmel Bay have 46 from 19.
However, as the Amateurs have not applied for promotion, Bay will be elevated either as runners-up, or as champions if they can turn the title race their way in the closing weeks.
Leon Field, Andy Thomas and Alex Craig’s side walloped Bro Cernyw on Saturday by a 10-0 margin.
Charlie Jones began the deluge in just the second minute by scoring for the third game in succession.
By half time, Bay were 6-0 up. Connor Morris with a double to reach 24 goals this season, Sean Sheridan, Lewis Thompson and Matthew Rees also on target.
In the second half, subs Tate Walker and Shane Evans added two apiece, making it seven different names on the scoresheet for the hosts.

Llandudno Amateurs 5 CPD Y Glannau 0

Billy Sieben, Joe Jones, Lee Thomas, Lee Savings and Danny Hughes all netted once as Llandudno Amateurs went nap and maintained their lead at the summit.
Amateurs took the lead after four minutes with a superb team goal. Thomas’ low driven cross from the right was finished off clinically by Sieben.
Thomas was sin-binned for 10 minutes for dissent and the hosts lost their way a little until making it 2-0 close to half time.
The excellent Azz Rogers picked up the ball in the middle of the park and superbly picked out the run of Jones, who made no mistake
Three minutes into the second half, Jones pounced to intercept the ball, then played it through to Thomas, who exquisitely chipped the keeper for his 19th goal of the season.
Amateurs confidence was now flying. On 58 minutes, Thomas turned provider for the second time, his cross to the back post locating Lee Savings, who applied the finish.
Seven minutes from time, substitute Gezzie Thomas’ determination to win the ball set off another attack. He found Thomas, who spotted the run of Hughes and he smashed home number five.

Glan Conwy 1 Mochdre Sports 3

Will Edwards struck at the double and Niall Owen also made the scoresheet as Sports claimed the spoils at Cae Ffwt, Cyril Carey responding for Glan with his 21st club goal of the season.
