What a way for Brickfield to make sure of Ardal title
Flairs went off as Brickfield, who only needed a point to become champions, routed Radnor Valley 6-0 at Clywedog Park. First half goals from Isaac Dawson, Aiden Fox and Tom Freeman, who scored from the spot, put Gareth Wilson's side 3-0 up at the break. And it got better in the second half with Freeman adding a second to go with goals from Jay Richardson and Callum Roberts. 'This season has been a brilliant achievement on and off the pitch,' said proud boss Wilson. 'The hard work that is put in off the field from Paul Hooson, Mike Derosa, Simon Mullen, Kev Owen and David Murray gives the platform for me and Matt Cook to compete on the pitch in a very tough league. 'Obviously and rightly so the team will get the plaudits and they fully deserve it but the 'team behind the team' have made all this happen.' The win for Rangers, who take on Porthmadog in the Ardal North Cup final next weekend, saw them finish three points clear of Bow Street while Llanuwchllyn ended up third. It was also a good day for Connah's Quay Town in an exciting climax to the North East Wales League's Reserves Division. Town clinched the Group B title and promotion to Group A with a 5-0 victory at Coedpoeth United, where both sides had a player red carded. Jon Tear-Edmonds and Lewis Harris hit doubles for Quay, whose superior goal difference pipped Lex XI to top spot. Eric Thomas was Quay's other scorer while runners-up Lex also signed off with a 5-0 away win. Their first team's top scorer Harry Massey hit a hat-trick while Sam Colley and Josh Betteley were also on target at FC Queen's Park. Greenfield will finish level on 53 points with the top two if they beat Coedpoeth at home on Tuesday night. Greenfield won 1-0 at Brymbo on Saturday with Dylan Radcliffe grabbing the winner while Penyffordd Lions were 7-1 winners at Johnstown. Jacob Melo-Farina (2), Kai Welch, Macken Tiley-Phillips, Daniel Shaw, Marcus Davies and Dylan Williams did the damage. Callum Poole replied with the hosts' consolation goal. Buckley Town brought the FAW Reserves North East League season where The New Saints were crowned champions to an end. Buckley beat Ruthin Town 3-1 thanks to Evan Lowry (2) and Daniel Horton.

Exciting Cymru Premier League play-offs to get underway
Things have been tough for the Lakesiders, who ended a three-month wait for victory with last weekend's 3-2 success over runners-up Penybont. Bala can now look forward to tomorrow's play-off trip to Cardiff Met, with a place in the semi-finals at stake. Manager Colin Caton told S4C's Sgorio: 'The play-offs, everything what's happened in the season, recent form, everything goes out of the window. 'It's about the next game now. It's about the next 90 minutes. It's about the decision-making in those 90 minutes and I'm proud of the lads. 'I've been proud of them over the season, with the amount of injuries we've got. Getting people back and it's all down to the Cardiff Met game now.' Bala Town FC manager Coiin Caton. Fellow Gwynedd club Caernarfon Town are also aiming to make their mark in the play-offs. The Canaries, who concluded the campaign in fourth place, host Barry Town United, who comfortably finished at the top of the Play-off Conference. The structure of the play-off semi-finals and final will be decided by the outcome of the Welsh Cup final on May 4. If The New Saints win, league runners-up Penybont will qualify automatically for European competition. However, if Connah's Quay Nomads retain the cup, Penybont will compete in the play-offs.

Airbus to tackle Corwen in big cup semi-final clash
The likes of Danny Warren and George Peers have taken much of the plaudits for the Wingmakers this season, but it was Nathan Williams (pictured above) who grabbed the decisive goal as Airbus beat Trefelin 3-2 to lift the Cymru Cup. This followed Airbus winning the Cymru North Cup and also in their sights is the North East Wales FA Cup, with the Wingmakers heading to The Globe, in Buckley, for tonight's semi-final with Ardal League Corwen. Boss Allen told the club's YouTube channel: 'For Nathan to score, you know, he's come in this season from Gresford and been fantastic for us. Particularly as a defender, obviously, but he's grabbed some important goals for us as well. So, I'm delighted for him.' Corwen go into the game on a back of a stunning 6-0 win at Pwllheli where Pat Hinchcliffe hit a hat-trick and top scorer Sam Henry bagged his 20th goal of the season. Tonight's winners will take on Holywell Town in the final. Barring two bizarre results, The New Saints will be crowned champions in the FAW Reserves North East League. They head to Airbus tonight level on points with Flint Mountain but with a far superior goal difference. Llay Welfare host Prestatyn Town while Mold Alex will finish bottom after losing 4-3 at home to Ruthin Town. Joseph Delaney (2) and Zac Barnes were Mold's scorers while it finished 2-2 between Buckley Town and Holywell Town, who had goalkeeper Kieron Feenan sent off. Evan Lowry scored both for Buckley with Zak Dakin and Josh Acott replying. There are two games in the North East Wales Championship with fourth-placed Acton at home to Rhydymwyn, the team above them. Holywell United sign off at home to Cefn Druids while in Group B of the Reserves Division, Greenfield will go top with a win at Penyffordd Lions.
