Haverfordwest County AFC are delighted to confirm our home venue for this summer’s UEFA Conference League adventure will be Parc y Scarlets!
The Bluebirds clinched a second European qualification in three years by defeating Caernarfon Town 3-1 in front of a capacity crowd of 1,717 at the Ogi Bridge Meadow on Sunday evening. Ben Ahmun’s brace either side of Dan Hawkins’ goal gave the Town a thoroughly deserved victory on a jubilant evening in Pembrokeshire.
Tony Pennock’s men will enter the competition at the first qualifying round stage, with our opponents to be discovered when the draw takes place at UEFA headquarters in Geneva on Tuesday 17 June.
The ground, which is home to BKT United Rugby Championship side Scarlets, has hosted numerous football matches since opening its doors in 2008, most recently welcoming the Cymru women’s national team.
The 14,547-capacity arena also hosted three successive JD Welsh Cup finals between 2008 and 2011, with Bangor City defeating Aberystwyth Town and Port Talbot Town before Llanelli beat the Citizens in the most recent final to be held at the ground.
The Bluebirds played their home games at Cardiff City Stadium – the home of the Cymru men’s national team – in our most recent European campaign in July 2023, welcoming over 3,500 supporters through the gates as we created history by winning a tie for the very first time when we defeated KF Shkëndija of North Macedonia on penalties.
The stadium is a 1 hour and 10 minute drive from Haverfordwest, and we look forward to welcoming our supporters as we aim to create more history and memorable moments on the European stage.
Ticketing information will be confirmed in due course once more details are known.
