What is the FAW Regions Cup?
The six area associations in Wales contest the FAW Regions
Cup on a bi-annual basis. Each association selects
a squad comprised of amateur players from within their
respective areas.
Two groups are formed, with Central Wales FA, North
East Wales FA and North Wales Coast FA forming one
group, and South Wales FA, Gwent County FA and West Wales FA comprising
the other.
Each team meets the others in their group home and away in a round robin
format, with the two group winners meeting in the final.
