The FAW Tier 1 Licence is a requirement for clubs to compete in the Genero Adran Premier and we are delighted to confirm that we have received our Licence for the forthcoming season.

On achieving the Licence, Women's First Team Manager, Jordan Parry commented; "We are extremely thrilled to pass the Tier 1 License for next season - the hard work behind the scenes to complete it all is always a challenge so to be rewarded with it is such a great feeling for all involved. Huge appreciation has to go to Assistant Manager Ross Jones who has lead it all and I personally can't thank him enough for driving it."

Our Women's team have already been crowned as Genero Adran North champions following a fantastic season and will now likely face off against Pontypridd United in the play-off for promotion to the Genero Adran Premier with United currently sitting top of the Genero Adran South with nearest rivals Swansea University not applying for a Tier One Licence and Cascade having been refused at this initial stage on Personnel and Administration criteria.
