The fixture release days for the 2025/26 JD Cymru Leagues season have also been confirmed.

The fixtures for the JD Cymru North and JD Cymru South campaigns will be announced at 10am on Monday 30 June, ahead of the opening weekend of the season on 25-27 July.

The Phase One fixtures for the JD Cymru Premier campaign will be announced at 10am on Thursday 10 July, ahead of the opening weekend of the season on 8-10 August.

While this JD Cymru Premier fixture release date is comparatively later than previous years, the FAW says clubs expressed a desire to wait for the English Football League fixture lists to be released (on Thursday 26 June) before the Phase One schedule is determined, to avoid as many local fixture clashes as possible.
