The U10s have been working hard all season, and now that the season is over, they wanted to show off their latest sunglasses trend 😎☀️ The sun might be hiding this morning, but that hasn’t stopped them bringing the summer vibes! Well done, U10s — brilliant effort all season 👏

@NoelMooney13 @Cymru @FAWales Hey Noel - what about a 4G pitch for @LlandrindodAFC ??? So much community involvement, lots of junior teams and nowhere for them all to play. Come on! You can do this!

Building Welsh football ... next season we will open a new 16 team @Cymru Premier Division ... can't wait ! In the meantime we are investing in stadia, signing big new partners, agreeing broadcast deals and supporting the clubs to grow ... stay tuned 👀 @FAWales

@LlandrindodAFC Have a great summer everyone and see you all in July!! 💙🤍💙🤍

Final game of the season away to league runners-up Dolgellau AA FC. A tough first half left us chasing the game, but the boys battled hard after the break. Ruben Edwards & Nyle Slade posed threats going forward, while Shaun Nicholls & Max Edwards stood strong defensively.

@LlandrindodAFC Huge thanks as always to Gaz, Tom, Kevin, the committee, Cori and those who coach the youngsters, and all the other people behind the scenes, without whom the club wouldn’t exist. Their efforts make the club such an important part of the local community. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@LlandrindodAFC Another tough game at the end of a bruising season. But despite injuries and other setbacks the boys have persevered & gave everything right to the final minute of the season. I hope the squad sticks together & maybe with some strengthening we can really compete next season.

@LlandrindodAFC Come on lads!!!!

Tomorrow is the First Team’s final game of the 25/26 season as we travel to face high-flying Dolgellau AA FC away from home. A tough test awaits, but the lads are ready to battle until the very end and finish the season on a high. 💪⚽

@LlandrindodAFC Great result lads!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💙🤍

Tuesday night saw the reserves secure a deserved 5-2 win over Llanidloes Town FC. Goals from Ryan Sims (2), Zak Baker, Reuben Thomas and Rich Powell sealed the victory, with Powell also picking up 3 assists. Brad Andrews was named Man of the Match

@LlandrindodAFC As with all season, you just can’t fault the lads effort and desire. It will be a tough ask to get something, but I want to see that commitment again right up until the final whistle next Saturday. Let’s hold our heads up and go again one last time… 💙🤍💙🤍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The Firsts fell to a 3-0 defeat, but the effort shown throughout was outstanding. Chances fell to Darren Murphy and Tom Durant, while special mentions go to Reuben Thomas, Riley Ponting and Jack Smith for stepping up after playing 90 the night before.

@LlandrindodAFC We should go with confidence after recent strong performances. Hopefully we are taking a strong squad to make sure our season ends on a high both today and next Saturday as well. Come on lads!!!! 💙🤍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Today, the firsts travel to Cefn Albion F.C. for their penultimate game of the season. We’re expecting a tough battle, with plenty of hard work and commitment needed throughout🔵⚪️

Introducing this week's Fantastic Five. Many thanks to all team-mates, coaches and supporters for their nominations.

@LlandrindodAFC Come on Cori’s boys - make it another great night under the Broadway lights!

Tonight, the Reserves welcome Rhayader Town Reserves as the lads look to return to winning ways under the lights. Your support, as always, is greatly appreciated.

@NickEva26412354 @LlandrindodAFC Yes, I remember it well. Mind you, I don’t ever remember Robbo running over to enjoy the moment with us. Well done Jack!!! 😊💙🤍

@LlandrindodAFC 50 years ago my bro and I were part of group of young fans who reacted just like this when we scored a goal. It was great on Saturday to hear those kids getting behind the team. Well done lads, and well done Jack for running over to them so they could enjoy the moment even more!

We don’t usually post our goals… but this one was too good not to share 💙 Watch Jack Evans strike from range for 3 points, then celebrate with the young blue army. Look closer and you’ll see it all — the emotion, the reactions, and what it meant for our final home game.

@LlandrindodAFC Just brilliant!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@LlandrindodAFC Just a short clip illustrating so much of our season: solid defence, good distribution from James, tidy link-ups in midfield with Stu supporting well, and just the finish in front of goal being the missing piece…

Final home game in the sun saw a strong start with early pressure and chances. Solid defending from Shaun Nicholls and hard work from Joyce and Kear kept it level at 0-0. Late on, Jack Evans struck from outside the box to seal the win and take MOTM.

@LlandrindodAFC Great win to end our home season! Despite the heat we never flagged and just when it seemed that it wasn’t to be (yet again) up stepped Jack with a piece of his magic. So glad for the boys that we could end on a high. Let’s see what we can get from the last two games now!! 💙🤍👏🏻

@LlandrindodAFC Let’s go out in style lads!! We’ll be there to urge you on 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💙🤍

Tomorrow marks the Firsts’ final home game of the season as we welcome Rhos Aelwyd to The Broadway. It’s a big game, and we’ll need a big crowd behind the lads. With warm conditions expected, it’s set up to be a great occasion💙🤍

@LlandrindodAFC So sorry to miss this one. By brother gave me the full report and said that everyone put in a huge shift. So proud of you all. Keep going right to the end lads!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊🏻💙🤍

Home on Sponsors Day, we drew 2-2 with Dolgellau. Darren Murphy opened after de Groot’s cross. They equalised from the spot and later led. Nyle Slade hit the bar, before Ruben Edwards chipped late to level. MOTM: Stu Williams, dominant at the back.

Over the course of a season, there are different ways to be successful… You can build a team that’s solid, consistent, and very hard to beat, or one that plays with freedom, takes risks, and entertains. 👍 = Hard to beat 🛡️ RT = Exciting to watch ⚡️

@LlandrindodAFC It must be so hard to travel all that way, put in a massive battling performance and get kicked in the teeth right at the death. But we get up and keep coming back strong!! Stick together, keep fighting and your supporters will be there with you all the way lads. 💙🤍

Firsts travelled to Penycae in a tough contest. Murphy opened with a chipped finish from a short corner. Hosts levelled before HT. Injuries forced changes, but sub Robbie restored the lead from De Groot’s assist. Strong midfield display. MOTM: Stu Williams.

𝗖𝗟𝗨𝗕 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 | 𝗦𝗔𝗠 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗𝗦𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗛 Today marks a significant moment in the evolution of Newport City Football Club. At the end of this season, after 376 appearances and over a decade of unwavering commitment, Sam Houldsworth will transition into the role of Director of Football as part of the club’s ongoing restructure. 𝙎𝙖𝙢’𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙗𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙗 𝙘𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙. In the early days—when stability was far from guaranteed—it was individuals like Sam who carried the club forward. Through consistency, leadership, and relentless commitment, he has helped build the foundations that Newport City stands on today. 𝙌𝙪𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙨𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙮, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙛𝙚𝙬 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙗𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙗. The dedication and sacrifice—by Sam and his family—over the last 10 years are not lost on this club. That level of commitment is rare in the modern game, and it is a standard that will continue to define what Newport City represents. Sam is, and always will be, “𝙈𝙧 𝙉𝙚𝙬𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙞𝙩𝙮.” This transition is not a step away—it is a step forward. As Director of Football, Sam will play a central role in shaping the next phase of the club—defining standards, building identity, and delivering a clear football structure from development through to the first team. Sam’s role within the wider Newport football landscape—particularly his work within the professional game—places him in a unique position to help shape and influence the football ecosystem across South East Wales. That insight, connection, and experience will be instrumental in ensuring Newport City is not only part of that system, but positioned to compete, develop, and progress within it. Thank you 𝙂𝙖𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧 🫶🩵🤍
