Colwyn Bay Football Club have revealed exciting plans to improve facilities at their Llanelian Road ground this summer.

The plans were revealed during the ‘Have your Say’ evening at the club in which supporters were invited to share ideas and heard directly from the club about what’s ahead.

Club director Jody Johnson – who recently joined the board alongside his wife Carly through The Blue Turtle Group – laid out a bold vision for the future. 

Their three-year partnership with the club officially begins in June, taking over from 4 Crosses Construction as ground sponsor.

The plans include an upgrade of the Club Lounge which will see the current structure insulated and transforming the space with an extended bar, new flooring and furniture, and a fully fitted kitchen.

A major new build of the Clubhouse next summer will allow the club to host more functions, events, and become a true hub for the community.

The club are looking to improved the matchday experience, while the pitch will be widened on the Llanelian Road side to meet UEFA regulations, with a new perimeter barrier installed and turnstiles relocated to support the layout.

“This is about making the club a more desirable place,” Jody Johnson said.

“We want everyone connected to Colwyn Bay FC – from the kids’ teams to the women’s team, the senior men, and walking football – to feel at home here.”

The Bay recently secured the JD Cymru North title and a return to the JD Cymru Premier at the first attempt following relegation 12 months ago.

“It’s not just about surviving,” Jody Johnson added. “With this investment, we’re aiming to compete – a 6th or 7th place finish is within reach, and we want to enjoy some big nights here next season.”
