THE Football Association of Wales is excited to unveil Cymru Football TV, the
new home for Welsh football streaming.
The subscription service will be the only place to watch all matches from the Novira
Cymru Premier live, providing greater access to the top-flight of Welsh men’s domestic
football than ever before.
Subscribing to the platform will also provide supporters with access to other selected
domestic live fixtures, Cymru national team age-group matches and FAW
documentaries. Domestic cup draws will be available to watch for free, while more
content will be announced in the coming weeks.
The first live matches on Cymru Football TV will be the UEFA Conference League first
qualifying round ties involving Caernarfon Town, Connah’s Quay Nomads and
Penybont in the week commencing Monday 6 July.
Supporters can purchase a Cymru Football TV season pass for £99.99, or a monthly
pass for £12.99. Passes for individual matches can be bought for £8.99.
The FAW is pleased to provide supporters with the option to sign up for a 14-day free
trial on the platform, with this offer available to supporters until 23:59 BST on Sunday
12 July – allowing free access to selected European fixtures, Cymru Cup matches and
action from the men’s Welsh Cup First Qualifying Round.
In addition to Cymru Football TV, a new free-to-air broadcast deal for the Novira Cymru
Premier will be announced in due course.
Jack Sharp, FAW Head of Domestic Leagues, commented: “The launch of Cymru
Football TV represents a significant step forward for the future of the Cymru Premier
and our wider domestic competitions.
“Moving from 28 broadcasted matches per season to coverage of every Cymru
Premier fixture fundamentally transforms the ability of the FAW and its clubs to expand
their reach, visibility, and engagement. This will be complemented by the strongest
ever free-to-air offering in the history of Welsh football, details of which will be
announced shortly.
“As structural changes are introduced across the Cymru Premier, it remains essential
that supporters continue to have access to their clubs. While the platform is launching
with modest beginnings, its long-term development will be guided by audience growth
and supporter feedback, with increased reinvestment as the platform succeeds.
“I am also pleased to highlight that a significant redistribution model is built into the platform,
ensuring that clubs directly benefit from their own supporters buying subscription
packages.
“Considerable work and investment from the FAW has gone into delivering this project,
while I would like to thank the team at Two Circles for their support throughout the
process. We hope the platform will provide both long-standing and new supporters
with a central hub for domestic football as the only place to watch all Cymru Premier
matches live. In time, the platform will also enable us to assess and enhance coverage
across our other competitions which we will be trialling this season.”
