Under 14 and 16 sides progress to North Finals and will face Bala Town and TNS academies in the next week.

Our under 14s won their semi final last night against Airbus UK Broughton at the Deeside Stadium.

The Nomads had taken a two nil lead at the break thanks to two goals from Owain Edwards.

But Airbus fought back well in the second half and scored two goals in the remaining ten minutes to take the game into extra time.

Nomads pushed on well in the extra time period and with two minutes remaining were awarded a penalty when the Airbus player handled the ball in the box which was converted well from Ben Finnegan.

The under 14s will now face Bala Town at Wrexham Colliers Park this Sunday in the North Wales Final.

Venue: Wrexham Centre of Excellence, Gresford, LL12 8PW
Date: Sunday 27th April
Opposition: Bala Town
Kick Off time: 13:00
Arrival Time: 14:00
Kit: Both to be brought
Reminders: Players to arrive wearing full academy tracksuit and polo top with match day bag.

The under 16s who lost their semi final to Airbus by two goals to one last week have been re instated into the competition as Airbus were found by the FAW to have fielded ineligible players.

The side now look forward to facing The New Saints in the north Final which will take place a week tomorrow at Buckley Towns stadium ground.

Venue: Buckley Town Stadium, The Globe, CH7 3LY
Date: Thursday 1st May
Opposition: The New Saints
Kick Off time: 19:30

Good luck to both of our sides in what should be really tough and exciting fixtures to look forward to.

If either side are successful in the north finals they will represent the north against the south winners the following Sunday 4th May at Newtown in the national finals.
