Murals have been unveiled at Flint Town United’s Cae Y Castell and Connah’s Quay Nomads’ clubhouse as part of a new Cymru Premier project.

The JD Cymru Premier has launched Canfas Cymru Premier, a project centred on the creation of murals to celebrate the identities of all 12 clubs in Wales’ top flight.

Working with The Deep Creative and SixFive Design, the league has commissioned bespoke murals for every club in the 2025/26 season.

Following consultation sessions with clubs, the designs were created by illustrator Mike Miles-Boardman, founder of Visually Speaking, and painted by Pembrokeshire-based artist Lloyd The Graffiti.

The project gives each Cymru Premier club a permanent piece of art at their stadium or in their community.

Olly Allen, FAW Domestic Football Media & Marketing Manager, said: “It has been brilliant to see this project come to life over the last few months and the murals that have been produced brilliantly encapsulate the unique identities of our Cymru Premier clubs.

“As part of the Cymru Premier strategy, we are aiming to build the profile and awareness of clubs and this project provides permanent pieces of art that activate that goal. Community also sits at the heart of the development of the league and these murals help clubs engage with supporters old and new.”

Edd Norval, Director of The Deep Creative, said: “This project spotlights the tapestry of distinct identities across Wales, working with clubs to understand these distinctions, whilst weaving them together to tell a broader story. As a whole, it’s not really about those differences, but how those differences bring us together as football fans.

“Working with the clubs and the FAW on this has allowed art to tell stories, whether on stadia or in prominent community locations. We hope these artworks bring fans together – not only to celebrate the club you love, but each mural as an attraction in its own right when travelling on awaydays. We also hope that the designs give fans and members of each club and community a sense of pride, reinforcing their love of the beautiful game.”
