CPD Porthmadog FC and the wider community is still trying to come to terms with the news of the passing of Dafydd Wyn Jones. The chasm which his death leaves in our community, in the football club he loved and above all in his close knit family only grows and grows. Here is a man who used his abundant talents to benefit all of the many strands of the varied interests which he served so well.

Dafydd has been instrumental in laying the foundations that the club are built on today and his footprint is on almost everything that makes Y Traeth one of the best footballing set ups in North Wales. He had a vision for Porthmadog Football Club and delivered on so many fronts over the decades that he was involved with the club.

The term irreplaceable is used too often these days, but to CPD Porthmadog FC, Dafydd was exactly that and as a club, we can think of no better way of honouring him than to deliver on his ambition of erecting a new main stand at Y Traeth.

We will be naming the new stand in memory of Dafydd and in appreciation for what he has done for the club over the many decades that he has been involved.

The aim is to start work on the new main stand as soon as the current season has finished, but we need your help to raise the funds the make Dafydd’s vision a reality by donating on our Just Giving page. Should anyone want to donate by cheque, please see one of the Board Members at Y Traeth.

Let’s all pull together and honour a man that has given the club so much.
