Fixtures for 21/22 JD Cymru Premier season announced

In a season disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020/21, Connah's Quay Nomads retained their trophy after 32 matches, following a final day thriller at the SDM Glass Stadium.

Under the guidance of Anthony Limbrick, The New Saints will be looking to regain the title after going two years without the trophy. The two sides will meet for the first time in the new season at Deeside on October 9.

However, there will be a tangible sense of excitement around all of the grounds on the first weekend, as the clubs welcome spectators back into their grounds for the first time since the pandemic began.
