Division 2

Teams

Glan Conwy were champions in the previous season and were promoted to Division 1 along with runners-up, Blaenau Ffestiniog Amateur. They were replaced by Barmouth & Dyffryn United and Llandudno Junction who were both relegated from Division 1.

The bottom team from the previous season was Amlwch Town, who avoided relegation as Meliden resigned from the Welsh Alliance League at the end of the season.

Gwynedd League runners-up, Gwalchmai and Vale of Clwyd and Conwy Football League Premier Division champions, Llandudno Amateurs were promoted to Welsh Alliance League Division 2.

On 21 July 2019, Llannerch-y-medd resigned from the Welsh Alliance League after losing the entire squad of players from the previous season for various reasons. They will now play in the Gwynedd League for the 2019–20 season.
