Bala Humbled at The Rock
Huw Griffiths' boys headed into Thursday nights fixture on the back of a hard fought point against Prestatyn the previous week.

Druids searching for next league win
Last Friday Druids secured a point at home against a determined Prestatyn side, Druids showed their strength throughout the game and fought back, with Nathan Peate securing a late equaliser. The prospect of facing last seasons Welsh Cup Winners and strong league outfit Bala Town this week is not a easy one and Huw Griffiths' boys will need to be prepared to face a well drilled and tough Bala side.

Ryan Pryce joins Druids on loan
Huw Griffiths added to his defensive options after securing Ryan Pryce on a short term loan deal from The New Saints. The 20 year old from Telford is highly rated and has enjoyed much success with TNS since his first team debut back in the 2014/15 season after working his way through the youth structure at the club. Ryan, who landed trials with a number of larger clubs including Middlesborough, is considered a versatile young full-back who will hopefully make an impact during

WPDL: Goal Thriller for U19s
Sundays game we welcomed Prestatyn town to the rock to what was GW3 in the WPDL. Our first two league fixtures had seen us lose a close battle to TNS 1-0 at home and a well-earned draw away to flint town 1-1. It was Manager Josh Millington first home game as U19 manager and had made the message clear to his lads that a good performance and 3 points was needed to get their season going. Matt Pritchard and Ben Dawson earned a starting position from their performance away to fli

This Friday Druids will take on the current League Champions, The New Saints. Last Season Druids took no points from these fixtures losing 4-0 and 0-2 but the Druids will head into this fixture optimistically on the back of improving league performances as well as the knowledge that changing staff at TNS may have unsettled the winning formula built up over many seasons. As ever it will be a strong well fought fixture between two passionate local sides. Park Hall - KO: 19.45 (


Druids resurgent in NEWFA Cup
Druids fielded a strong side to face Gresford in the second round of the NEWFA Cup, after disappointment the previous week dropping out of the Nathaniel MG Cup, the ancients needed a statement to show they were taking lessons from their previous defeats. The game opened fairly evenly with both sides taking chances, a repeat of the pre season draw seemed a possibility until Naim Arsan found the back of the net after 21 minutes, Healing and Mudimu rounded off a great first half
