North Wales Premier League
CROESO - WELCOME
North Wales is a land of mystery and culture, history and outstanding natural beauty. If you want castles, they are here (see below). The Roman Empire reached these shores, and yet the Celtic spirit was left undiminished.
REMINDER TO CLUBS WITH TEAMS IN PREMIER DIVISION & DIVISION ONE
Matches next week (23rd August) start 30 minutes earlier.
Monday 25th August 2008
The run of poor weather continued resulting in several games being cancelled or abandoned. The west of the region was again worst hit with the east faring much better. Llandudno win at Mochdre to open up a small lead with just 3 games remaining. Menai Bridge again abandoned and slip to 3rd place. The battle at the top is mirrored by a fierce tussle at the bottom - Hawarden Park losing while closest rivals are involved in another abandonment but both pick up points on Hawarden Park.
Llay score another maximum to move into second place but Denbigh emeerge victorious from their match of the day tussle at Northop to claim top spot.
Bersham lose at home to Ruthin and Bangor lose at Conwy. Dolgellau with most wins this season fail to capitalise being well beaten at Pwllheli who move into second spot.

Saturday 23rd August 2008
As last week-end the weather again proved to be a major influence arriving late in the day to cause the abandonment of several key matches. Affecting the west of the region earliest, the games at Menai Bridge and Mochdre were both abandoned allowing Llandudno playing over at Brymbo and recording a 10 wicket victory in double quick time to regain the top position in the Division. Bangor eased their relegation worries with a maximum points haul at Mold. St Asaph shock Pontblyddyn by winning by 5 wickets.
In Division 1 Denbigh gain maximum points with their win over Brymbo IIs to move into second place. Llay held to winning draw at Marchwiel and Wrexham with game being abandoned with less than 4 overs remaining. Northop involved in abandoned game at Llandudno IIs.
In Division 4 Llay IIs crush Mynydd Isa IIs to extend their lead and Carmel IIs defeat of Dolgellau IIs move them back into the second promotion spot aided by Gresford IIs losing at Bersham IIs.
In Division 6 Llandudno IIs and Halkyn IIs secure promotion.

CLUB ACCREDITATION
Congratulations to Hawarden Park who become the third NWCL Club to join those already accredited. They join Brymbo and Pontblyddyn who together with Colwyn Bay and Prestatyn make up the five Clubs from North Wales so far. Llandudno and Mochdre, who are at an advanced stage in the process, should shortly join them with Bethesda, Connahs Quay and Menai Bridge and also making steady inroads. Even so we are a long way behind the progress which is happening elsewhere.
