Glan Conwy Football Club are a Welsh football club playing in the Welsh Alliance League. They are a member of the North Wales Coast Football Association.

History

Glan Conwy joined the newly formed Vale of Conwy League in 1922 as one of the seven founder members, the others being Dolgarrog, Llandudno Junction Reserves, Llanrwst Reserves, Old Colwyn FC, Penmaen Celts, and Penmaenmawr Reserves.

The club nickname was the "Jolly Boys" and they played at the former Gala Field. They remained playing in this league until the end of the 1938/39 season and the outbreak of the Second World War. After the end of the war in 1945 there is no record of the club reforming, probably due to lack of a pitch, as most of the surrounding fields were now being fully employed as agricultural land to relieve food shortages.

Brian Thomas and Dewi Williams of Glan Conwy managed to resurrect the club in 1979 and the following year the team rejoined the Vale of Conwy League. However, still without a home pitch, they were forced to play their home games at different venues such as the Llandudno Oval, Hotpoint, Quinton Hazell and Junction Flyover. They remained in the Vale of Conwy League for a further eighteen years. They won the league championship as well as the North Wales Coast FA Junior Cup in 1998 and were promoted to the Gwynedd League. They stayed in this league for just the one season at the end of which they were crowned league champions and were promoted to the Welsh Alliance League, where they remain to this date. Glan Conwy FC, although they have finished as league runners-up twice, the league champion accolade still eludes them. Glan Conwy reached the final of the FAW Trophy in 2007 but lost heavily to Brymbo. The club had a successful 2009/10 season reaching the final of the FAW Welsh Trophy and pipping local arch rivals Llandudno Junction FC to a second place finish in the league. They beat South Wales outfit Clydach Wasps 5–1 in the FAW Trophy final to take the cup home to Cae Ffwt.

The home ground for Glan Conwy FC since its opening in 1998 has been Cae Ffwt, a ground in the village of Glan Conwy which is situated on the banks of the River Conwy. The club's colours changed almost annually depending on shirt sponsorship but in 1997 the club adopted green and white stripes, which has now become green and white hoops.

The club also runs a very successful reserve side, under the auspices of manager Ray Carlisle, which plays in the Clwyd Reserve Premier League. In all, there are about thirty five players attached to the football club. The present manager, Jon Chapman, took control of the first team at the start of the 2009/2010 season having been the assistant to the former manager, Paul Moroney, for the previous two seasons. He is assisted by Gareth Evans who was one of the mainstays of the team but who decided to hang up his boots at the end of the 2008/09 season.

At the end of the 2009/2010 season Glan Conwy won the FAW Trophy final after thrashing Gwent County league outfit Clydach Wasps 5–1. Glan dominated the game and the win cemented their place in the history books. This topped off a very successful season for Glan Conwy as they finished second in the league narrowly missing out on top spot by one point and pipping local rivals Llandudno Junction FC to second place in the last game of the season.
