Last season's league champions started the new campaign by winning the Siemens Healthcare North Wales 11-a-side invitation tournament at Llanrug.

Some of the region's strongest young teams viz.Holyhead Hotspur, Penrhyn Bay, Llysfaen Juniors, Llanrug United and Denbigh Town Juniors took part in the above tournament last Sunday 5 September .After a long day Denbigh met last season's NWCFA finalist Penrhyn Bay in the final. It was a very close match with both teams defending well and refusing to concede any goals by full time. It was a determined Reds team that eventually broke the deadlock when Gruffudd Roberts nodded in the ' golden goal' in extra time to the obvious delight of his team mates.
Denbigh now face a tough season ahead as the under 13s and under 14s are being amalgumated to one big league of 16 teams. Manager Steve Whitfield said " We know that we will find the new season extremely challenging particulary when we play the older teams but we are determined to give a good account of ourselves. New signings Ynyr Spencer and Lewys Jones were exceptional today and winning this tournament is a real boost. Well done to Llanrug for being such excellent hosts."
Denbigh's first game will a home fixture this Saturday against Abergele Town.
