2 DRUIDS ROUND UP MATCH REPORTS CAERNARFON LOOK ODDS ON FOR TITLE DRUIDS FALTER AGAIN BULL SIGNS OFF WITH A HAT TRICK ALL TO PLAY FOR AT THE BOTTOM Caernarfon Town are looking odds on for the Huws Gray Alliance championship after a three nil win at Llanfair United. Nathan Craig gave the league leader the lead after nineteen minutes and Jamie Breese doubled their advantage before the break. Last season s player of the season added a third for Caernarfon in the second half to take his total for the season to twenty one Denbigh Town are level on points at the top but they have now completed their league fixtures. They took a twenty seventh minute lead at Conwy Borough through Alan Bull, Derek Taylor equalising for Conwy on the stoke of half time. Player of the month Bull completed a hat trick in the second half with goals on sixty and ninety minutes to complete another victory for Denbigh in a very successful season Cefn Druids found themselves a goal behind after four minutes at Holywell Town, Bradley McGilloway on target. A Dave Forbes goal three minutes from time earning Cefn Druids a share of the points Mold Alex did their chance of escaping relegation no harm with an odd goal in three win at Guilsfield. A first half double from Ross McDowell had Alex in control with Adam Jenkins netting a penalty nine minutes from time for the Guils Another side at the wrong end of the table, Caersws lost at home to Holyhead Hotspur with Jamie Roberts netting the only goal of the game five minutes before the break Rhayader Town put their recent poor run of results behind them as they came from behind to beat visitors Prestatyn Town. Leigh Beattie gave Prestatyn a fifth minute lead but a goal in each half from Dafydd Carruthers gave Rhayader the points I don't know how to tell you this but you have to stop watching Druids 2

8 ACADEMY LLANDUDNO U15 s 0 CEFN DRUIDS U15 1 Our under 15s travelled to Llandudno today for a 5pm kick off on their first team 3G stadium, two previous meetings have resulted in hard fought games with our boys loosing out by the 1 goal in both so we were expecting a difficult encounter. First half Llandudno pegged us in our own half for periods of the game but couldn't break down a defiant Cefn Druids defence, Druids had 3 excellent counter attacking chances but the score stayed 0-0 half time. Second half Druids started the brighter keeping the ball well frustrating Llandudno with some excellent football and counter attacking Llandudno's defence, Druids finally broke the deadlock after 65 minutes when the lively Harry jones crossed to find Keenan bathers who cushioned his header from 15 yards to loop over the Llandudno keeper, Llandudno threw everything at Druids for the remaining 10 minutes but for some excellent saves from keeper Adam Jones and excellent defending kept the score 1-0, coach Phil Bathers praised the squad saying " Llandudno are a decent team, physically and technically who work hard on and off the ball, our boys were fantastic though today, their work rate was so refreshing and they got rewarded with the win there was a happy changing room after the game I'm so pleased for the players who put everything into the game on a big pitch " ******************************************************************************************************* There were no game this week for Druids U12s but squad members Ben Williams, Alfie Owens, Jamie Jarvis and Dyfan Thomas represented Wrexham School Boys U12s in Cardiff today (Sunday) in the schools semi finals v Cardiff schools ******************************************************************************************************* 8
