The Football Association of Wales has today confirmed that the 2021/2022 JD Welsh Cup Final between The New Saints and Penybont will be played at the Cardiff City Stadium.

The Final will take place on Sunday 1 May at 4pm, and be broadcast live on S4C and streamed online on the S4C website and Sgorio Facebook page.

Rhys Griffiths guided Penybont to their first-ever JD Welsh Cup Final following a penalty shoot-out victory against Bala Town at Park Avenue earlier this month.

While current holders The New Saints secured their place in the last two following a 1-0 win over JD Cymru North side Colwyn Bay at Rhyl’s Belle Vue.

Andrew Howard, FAW Head of Competitions, said: “We’re very pleased that the Cardiff City Stadium will be hosting this season’s Final, which is a showpiece event in the domestic calendar.

“I’m sure it will be a very special occasion for the players and staff to grace the pitch that provided such a memorable evening for the national team on Thursday, and hopefully the feel-good factor encourages people to attend this season’s Final.”

This will be The Saints’ second visit to the Cardiff City Stadium this season, following the 4-2 UEFA Europa Conference League win against Viktoria Plzeň last August.
