Mid-week Tuesday 23rd to Thursday 25th of August

An eventful mid-week of games in the KWAFL saw, the leagues leaders change three times, the first win by Mynydd LLandegai, the first hat-trick of the season was claimed by David Hayes of Mynydd Llandegai, then the following night Barry Haigh - Holyhead Town, went one better by scoring four

Bryngwran Bulls 1 v 5 Valley
Mathew Roberts Justin Willians [44,55]
Mark Hamblin [60]
Jerome Silence [70]
Danny Roberts

Tuesday night saw Valley travel to Bryngwran and produced a shock result to take over at the top of the league. “Shock result” is probably a little unfair to Valley because they are a good side capable of beating anyone, but I doubt anyone would have expected a 5-1 score line. It started well for the Bulls, Mathew Roberts putting them ahead and they led until seconds before the break when Justin Williams levelled. Ten minutes in to the second period Williams doubled the lead. On the hour Mark Hamblin made it three with a shot from just outside the box. Jerome Silence added his name to the list if scorers and Danny Roberts wrapped up the win with goal number five.

Llangoed & District 1 v 0 Pentraeth Res.
Martin Byasst

Valley’s stay at the top didn’t last long Llangoed taking over following a hard earned victory over a well organized Pentraeth team,
The game started at a fast pace with neither team really gaining control in the early stages. A chance fell to Charlie McKenna on the edge of the box but his volley sailed high and wide of the net. Llion Roberts was then sent through one on one with Geoff Hume in goal for the visitors but a bad touch and the ball got away from him.
The opposition tried a few things but the closest they come was a free kick from Dylan Jones which fell to gloves man Rhys Owens hands, and the half time whistle couldn't of come soon enough for players or spectators in a pretty uneventful first half.
The second half started with Llangoed going straight on the attack and pressing hard. On 50 minutes the breakthrough came when a direct pass from debutant Paul Edmonds found youngster Llion Roberts whose quick feet and neat footwork found a through ball to Martin Byast bearing down on the Pentraeth keeper and he calmly slotted the ball down the keepers right side 1-0 Llangoed.
The away side where set up to try and not concede many goals throwing everyone behind the ball and hitting on counter attacks but never really looked like causing any damage the chances kept coming to the home side but they just couldn't add the finishing touch. David Thomas firing over from 30 yards out Mathew Owen firing low into the side netting and a goal mouth scramble which was cleared in a no nonsense way by the away defence.
The game came to an end without either side doing anything of importance leaving the score at 1-0 to Llangoed who weren't happy with the performance but 3 points was 3 points against difficult opposition and to go top was most pleasing.

Bethesda Res 0 v 4 Mynydd Llandegai
David Hayes [3 inc pen]
jamie Williams

The same night saw the first local derby of the season – off the Island that is, when Bethesda Res., entertained Mynydd LLandegai. It produced two other firsts........the season’s first hat-trick, Mynydd's first win. David Hayes put the visitors ahead after seizing on a fumble. Jamie Roberts made it 0-2 and Hayes tucked away a penalty [0-3]. The hosts then lost a man to a second yellow and minutes later David Hayes completed his hat-trick heading home a deep cross to complete a personal success and a team success 4-0
