Gwersyllt Park are looking for some run-derful times
Park head west to tackle Menai Bridge tomorrow as they seek to secure a first win of the season.
Gwersyllt Park skipper Jamie Griffiths said: 'If we're being totally honest, a few of us give our wickets away.
'Players have got to go on and score bigger runs. Thirties and 40s are not acceptable. We have got to go on and bat the overs out.
'We will get there. This set of lads are great. We have got to work hard to get out of it.
'We have got to get both sides (of the game) right.'
A lengthy trek is also in store for Brymbo as they take on basement side Bethesda.
Brymbo go into the match after a narrow 11-run loss to unbeaten Bangor and skipper Dan Parry admitted: 'We should have won that one, but it's fine margins.
'It's five runs here and five runs there.
'On another day we would be talking about three from three.
'But we are one from three and we have had quite high points for losses.'
Looking ahead, Parry added: 'We have just got to put a run of games together.
'It was nice to right some wrongs (in the Welsh Cup) on Sunday.
'It was nice to see Sam Aplin get his first 100 (against Connah's Quay) on Sunday.'
Northop are also looking to bounce back from a defeat as they welcome Conwy tomorrow.
Last time out, Northop loss out by seven wickets versus Menai Bridge and captain Bart Ryan-Beswick said: 'It was good to get 200 runs on the board.
'But, it was probably 40 or 50 runs short on a good wicket.
'They chased well and they didn't give us many chances.'
Leading the way was a knock of 63 from Elliot Colclough and Ryan-Beswick added: 'Elliot batted very well, which was really good, and good for his confidence.'
Looking ahead to Conwy tomorrow, the skipper added: 'It won't be an easy game, but we're at home. It is an important game. We don't want to be dragged down there.'
Venumadhav Peram will return for Northop.
All-rounder Andrew Swarbrick has swapped Chirk for defending champions Mochdre and he will head to St Asaph with his teammates tomorrow.

Awesome quartet of awards over at Connah's Quay Nomads
The club secured four prizes in the FAW National League Awards, which took place in Cardiff. In the Adran North section, Nomads' unbeaten season was recognised by three awards. Jordan Parry was named as the league's manager of the season, while there was double joy for Polly Wild-McGregor. The Connah's Quay skipper, who scored 21 goals from midfield, made it a season to remember by winning the Adran North player of the season and young player of the campaign accolades. Added to this, there was also success for the club in the men's awards. Former Wales U21 international Rhys Hughes was the standout performer for Connah's Quay Nomads over the course of the campaign and his impressive displays earned him the Cymru Premier player of the season award. Hughes joined the Nomads from Tranmere Rovers last summer and he featured in every league fixture. He scored 15 goals for Connah's Quay and Hughes also helped Nomads to reach the final of the Welsh Cup for the second consecutive season, where they were pipped 2-1 by league champions The New Saints. Former Wrexham striker Louis Lloyd, the league's joint-top goalscorer, claimed the young player of the season accolade and The New Saints' Craig Harrison was named as the manager of the season. Wrexham duo Abbie Iddenden and Lili Jones missed out on Adran Premier awards. Iddenden, who scored nine goals and supplied nine assists as the Reds finished the season in fourth place, was a nominee for player of the season, which went to Cardiff City's Shannon Evans. Midfielder Jones, who finished joint-third in the assists chart with seven, lost out to Cardiff's Fiona Barry for the young player prize. Rhys James, of Briton Ferry Llansawel, took the manager of the season nod. Iddenden and Jones were named in the league's team of the season, while a special recognition award went the way of Cheryl Foster. Earlier this year, Foster brought the curtain down on a playing and refereeing career that broke down boundaries and made history in both the Welsh domestic game and on the international stage. Now overseeing refereeing pathways with the English FA, Foster's achievements were celebrated with this award. Four Nomads players - Molly France, Wild-McGregor, Evie Chard and Ella Jones - were included in the Adran North team of the season. Also in the line-up is Flint's Taylia Chaloner. Airbus were acknowledged in the Cymru North awards, with Kaiden Cooke being named as young player of the season. The teenager scored seven goals in 28 games for the Wingmakers to establish himself as an important part of Mark Allen's side. Striker Danny Warren picked up the Cymru North top scorer award, while Colwyn Bay chief Michael Wilde claimed the manager of the season accolade and the player of the season nod went to Seagulls' captain Sam Hart. Three Airbus players - Jordan Evans, Warren and George Peers - are included in the Cymru North team of the season. They are joined by Buckley Town's Adam Smith and Holywell Town's Jamie Breese.
