Season Overview

Rhyl competed in the Cymru North league for the 2019–20 season. However, they were wound up on 21 April 2020. A phoenix club was set up the following month with the new name (voted by the fans association) of CPD Y Rhyl 1879. It was confirmed that the new club has secured the use of the Belle Vue stadium. Therefore, this league was reduced to sixteen teams.

The Professional Registration Periods for the 2020/21 season are as follows: The first Professional Registration Period will open on 27 July 2020 and will close at midnight on 16 October 2020. Dates for the second Professional Registrations Period are to be confirmed.[1] Current Summer transfers can be found here.[2]

Since ‘COVID-19’ restrictions have been put in place by FAW. As from Monday 10 August 2020, clubs can train in groups of 15 and contact training will be allowed at all-levels of football. However, competitive and exhibition matches are still not allowed to take place.[3]
