0:03:28 > 0:03:33- How did he react to being named the - boss of Ffostrasol's parents' team?

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- I hadn't done any coaching - for a while.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43- I wasn't sure what to do and - I'd never heard of Ffostrasol.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48- I was delighted because - I had a personal connection.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Dad played for Ammanford - in the 1970s.

0:05:53 > 0:05:58- The people and children in Ammanford - were great.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03- The managers had two months...

0:06:04 > 0:06:07- ..to turn a crew - of enthusiastic parents...

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- ..into a functioning football team.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12- After that period the clubs...

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- ..would meet to fight it out for - the trophy at finals day in Newtown.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- It's been quite a journey - for the clubs and managers.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25- It's a nice time to look back.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29- Who better to do that with - than the Welsh football heroes?

0:06:31 > 0:06:34- The managers of the - Codi Gol series 2016.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Amlwch was far out on Anglesey. - That's all I knew.

0:06:44 > 0:06:49- I'd never been there but - the minute I arrived I realised...

0:06:49 > 0:06:53- ..the people were - very friendly and hospitable.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56- They were special.

0:06:57 > 0:06:57- Just up your street.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- Just up your street.- - Sexy?

0:06:59 > 0:07:02- A bit tall for you, maybe.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07- We're all the same height - lying down.

0:07:08 > 0:07:13- They weren't shy - and I knew I had my hands full.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17- What about scoring goals?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- Dave and me, up front.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22- Rush and Dalglish.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- I went on the PFA website - to look for free transfers.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29- There were none - so I worked with what I had.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32- It soon became the norm.

0:07:33 > 0:07:37- I had to psych myself up - for these parent sessions.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43- They've turned my hair greyer than I - would have liked over these months.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48- I enjoyed the experience - because of those people.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52- Without the people the experience - wouldn't have been as good.

0:07:56 > 0:08:01- It reminded me of Dyffryn Ardudwy, - where I was brought up.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05- Dyffryn is a bit bigger.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11- Being a small, close-knit community - is a real strength.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13- I liked that.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16- The people were great.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21- I need to see what standard - I'm working with here.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23- There's plenty of noise.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- There's plenty of noise.- - Shouting and screaming.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26- No communication.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29- I was given a warm welcome.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35- That relaxed me straight away - because I'm quite a shy character.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- They made it easy for me - to settle in.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47- It did start well - for Malcolm Allen in Pwllheli.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53- He was late for the first session - with Pete having to step in.

0:08:53 > 0:08:58- Pete claims he was at Pwllheli - when I was at Deiniolen.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01- We beat them 5-0.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Six on holiday, four injured. - I only had half a team.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- I should be manager - and him as my assistant.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11- I can teach him a lot.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- I can give him some tips - about commentating too.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21- I knew we'd have to work together...

0:09:21 > 0:09:25- ..to make a real effort - and get the best out of them.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31- I also asked them to trust me.

0:09:31 > 0:09:36- I can say now, at the end of it, - that no-one complained about that.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- I couldn't have asked for - a better gang of people.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50- It was good fun and I wasn't - expecting to find brilliant players.

0:09:51 > 0:09:55- Three or four of them - had played in the past.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59- They were very good.

0:09:59 > 0:10:03- They worked very hard and improved.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08- I hope they carry on training - and preparing for games.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12- They mustn't allowed all that - hard work to go down the drain.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16- It was fun and I can only say - positives things about it.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Even as the managers met their - squads for the first time...

0:10:21 > 0:10:23- ..the mind games had started.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26- I don't want to hear about...

0:10:26 > 0:10:30- ..John Hartson, Iwan Roberts - and Owain Jones Tudur or whatever.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37- I would ask OTJ about Amlwch - and he'd say he had no chance.

0:10:38 > 0:10:43- He kept underplaying their ability - so much all the time.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46- I knew he was lying.

0:10:47 > 0:10:52- You have a manager - with a modern, 2016 approach.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55- The other sides have dinosaurs.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59- Three has-beens.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- I was a bit worried - when John Hartson heard that.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- There were rumours of a headlock.

0:11:08 > 0:11:13- Owain called us has-beens. The way - we managed we looked like has-beens.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Life's too short - to take it to heart.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20- He was joking.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28- The pressure of the - committees' influence told on some.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32- I've come across a lot of - important people in my time.

0:11:32 > 0:11:37- Going up those stairs - I had no idea what to expect.

0:11:39 > 0:11:39- Hello all.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40- Hello all.- - Hello.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42- I'm very nervous.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46- Come in.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49- Facing the committee was tough.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- They were hard to please.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56- We need them more fit.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59- Work on fitness. That's a problem?

0:11:59 > 0:12:00- Work on fitness. That's a problem?- - Yes.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02- Thanks for that.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05- One or two had plenty to say.

0:12:06 > 0:12:11- You could see they'd been brought - up right in a good community.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16- How will he cope with coaching - the parents here at Ffostrasol?

0:12:16 > 0:12:17- He'll struggle.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22- I was nervous - walking into that first meeting.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23- How are you?

0:12:23 > 0:12:25- How are you?- - Fine, thanks.

0:12:25 > 0:12:26- You look serious.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- They had thought about - what they wanted to ask me.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33- They'd done their homework.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37- Do you have a strategy - as the manager?

0:12:40 > 0:12:41- We're in it to win it.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- I came out with very sweaty armpits.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48- One or two sessions - didn't go that well.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51- A few of the kids said...

0:12:51 > 0:12:54- .."C'mon John, get 'em going, - or you'll get the sack."

0:12:54 > 0:12:59- A 5-0 defeat will be a warning. - A defeat after that and you're out.

0:13:01 > 0:13:07- Once we agreed we were one big team - then things were pretty good.

0:13:07 > 0:13:13- One word has to be exorcised - from our minds - defeat.

0:13:15 > 0:13:16- We win. Thanks.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24- The committees had big decisions - to make like the kit design.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- We need some bling.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- That looks like something - from Strictly.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- It's not for Chester races - or the Grand National.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38- This is football not horse racing.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44- They also had to pick a mascot - to represent the club.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49- Does anyone have anything - that could inspire us?

0:13:50 > 0:13:51- Panda.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54- I don't think we've got - pandas in Ffostrasol.

0:13:55 > 0:13:55- Lleucu, the leopard.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Lleucu, the leopard.- - Dick, the hedgehog.

0:13:59 > 0:14:05- Why do we have to have an animal? - Why not a tree like our logo?

0:14:06 > 0:14:09- We've come back for the - elephant suit if you still have it.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16- The mascots and kits was great - and made it all professional.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- We were the only team - to arrive in track suits.

0:14:21 > 0:14:22- We looked the part.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- We may not have won the game but - we were the smartest dressed team.

0:14:31 > 0:14:32- The competition - was up and running.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- The managers were getting to know - their squads.

0:14:37 > 0:14:38- And their characters.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40- And their characters.- - Bring me a burger.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42- He's at McDonalds.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47- We'll be able to spot each other on - the pitch. We look like Sali Mali.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46- The club - is the heart of the village.

0:15:46 > 0:15:47- They don't get paid.

0:15:48 > 0:15:53- They put in so much to develop the - players and the children they coach.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57- They deserve more praise - than any professional coach.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- The rest of the team would work just - as hard over the months to come.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05- There were a few characters - in that team.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09- The other teams are similar, - are they?

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- ..had two members of the squad, - Dave Evans and Lefty...

0:18:28 > 0:18:30- ..who were also his assistants.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35- Lefty played with Dad for Cemaes.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39- He can be an intense character.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- I've seen him - manage the girls' team in Amlwch.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45- He loves being competitive.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48- He gets so nervous before games, - if he's managing or playing.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51- It's funny to watch him.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53- I know it's not funny for him.

0:18:53 > 0:18:58- Once he gets in the zone, - he's a good one to have in a team.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02- He always tries - to lift people's spirits.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05- Dave was a massive help.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- I've known him for years.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10- I knew we had a good player.

0:19:11 > 0:19:15- Maybe the legs weren't quite - what they used to be 15 years ago.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21- A quality player - and a brilliant man.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23- Come on, Sonia!

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- Easier than wrestling sheep.

0:19:27 > 0:19:28- Easier than wrestling sheep.- - Guaranteed!

0:19:30 > 0:19:33- The experiences were different - for Sonia.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37- A farmer out of her comfort zone - to an extent.

0:19:38 > 0:19:39- But she was a lot of fun.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42- I wouldn't like to argue with her...

0:19:42 > 0:19:44- ..that's for sure.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47- I thought early on - that she was a handful.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50- If I didn't manage her properly, - I'd be in trouble.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54- She's quite a woman. - I'll remember her for a long time.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01- In Pwllheli, manager Malcolm Allen - didn't lack support either.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- His friend Pete Jones - was his assistant.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- He almost scored three own goals - away in Penrhyn.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12- I drove the minibus home - and left him there.

0:20:13 > 0:20:17- Take Pete out of Pwllheli - and, I think, there's no community.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Everyone in Pwllheli knows Pete.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25- He's the glue - that binds everything together.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26- Pete is a hero in Pwllheli.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30- There aren't many people - you can depend on in life.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32- I know I could depend on Pete.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36- He's gone from being a friend - to being a very close one.

0:20:37 > 0:20:38- What's wrong?

0:20:40 > 0:20:41- This is what's wrong!

0:20:43 > 0:20:47- No-one in Pwllheli gets paid. - They do it for free.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- People like Pete and Ivonica.

0:20:50 > 0:20:55- I think she's been appointed - to the club's chair.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- They couldn't have chosen better.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01- She helps everyone - and gives advice to everyone.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03- She tells everyone what to do.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06- You have to listen, believe me!

0:21:06 > 0:21:09- When Ivonica says something, - you jump.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11- Every club needs an Ivonica.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14- I know she'll thrive - in her increased profile.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16- I wish her all the best.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21- With the finals on the horizon...

0:21:22 > 0:21:26- ..there was an emphasis on everyone - pulling together in the squads.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- There was lots of sweat in Pwllheli.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33- I wasn't built to move.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37- There was plenty of mud...

0:21:37 > 0:21:41- ..as Ffostrasol - took part in outdoor activities.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46- Special!

0:21:47 > 0:21:50- Ammanford were ready for the battle, - literally.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- There's a lot of tension - in the camp...

0:21:56 > 0:21:59- ..so it's nice to get some of it out - before Newtown.

0:22:03 > 0:22:08- In Amlwch, Owain Tudur Jones - decided to calm the nerves...

0:22:09 > 0:22:12- ..and relax the muscles - before the finals.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- With the four parents' teams - facing each other...

0:22:22 > 0:22:27- ..to decide who would travel - to France, with so much at stake...

0:22:28 > 0:22:30- ..a strong referee was needed...

0:22:31 > 0:22:33- ..to keep the players and managers - in check.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36- Who better than this person?

0:22:36 > 0:22:39- Hello, Eleri Sion with you - on BBC Radio Wales.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44- I don't know if - you remember me telling you...

0:22:44 > 0:22:48- ..that I'd had this - once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...

0:22:48 > 0:22:53- ..to train - to become a football referee.

0:22:54 > 0:22:59- I've never refereed anything, - not even tiddlywinks in the pub.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02- Mam will be a great ref.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07- Eleri would have to spend many hours - learning the rules of the game...

0:23:07 > 0:23:11- ..and sit an exam - before being allowed to referee.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- I've finished. Take it away.

0:23:14 > 0:23:15- Please.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20- I laughed when I first heard.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23- With Eleri Sion, rugby is her thing.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28- Her knowledge of football - has improved over the years...

0:23:28 > 0:23:31- ..but she's never done anything - like this.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33- It's not easy. It's not easy.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36- I couldn't be a referee.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39- You can't please anyone. - You'll upset someone.

0:23:40 > 0:23:41- Was it the right choice?!

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- She can answer that.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48- Well done, boys. Well done.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55- Everything I learned in the exam - went out the window.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58- At the end of the day, - there's a prize to be won.

0:23:59 > 0:24:00- Do I have a future in it?

0:24:00 > 0:24:01- Do I have a future in it?- - No.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04- This is a big mistake. - A big mistake.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14- As Ammanford, Pwllheli, Amlwch - and Ffostrasol...

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- ..go head to head in Newtown...

0:24:17 > 0:24:21- ..the committees reveals the kits.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25- The managers would be preparing them - mentally.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28- We'll have to be at our best.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31- Look after yourselves - between now and Sunday.

0:24:31 > 0:24:32- Group hug.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Group hug.- - Sunday is important to us all.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38- If it's important to us, I'm sure - it's important to everyone here.

0:24:38 > 0:24:39- I think we're ready. Do you?

0:24:39 > 0:24:40- I think we're ready. Do you?- - Yes.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- You're ready for it, - I'm ready for it.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45- I'm looking forward to winning.

0:24:45 > 0:24:46- Go, team.

0:25:20 > 0:25:21- Good luck to all.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32- First out, Ammanford. John's team.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34- Thank you, Osian.

0:26:01 > 0:26:02- Thank you, Osian.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06- It's Ammanford v Pwllheli - and Amlwch v Ffostrasol.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09- The games will be played - on one big day in Newtown.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16- It will be a huge day - at Latham Park in Newtown...

0:26:16 > 0:26:18- ..for Finals Day.

0:26:18 > 0:26:22- All four teams are eager - to be crowned Codi Gol Champions...

0:26:22 > 0:26:26- ..and to go on that special trip - to Brittany.

0:26:51 > 0:26:56- Ammanford against Pwllheli - would be the first semi-final.

0:26:56 > 0:27:01- It doesn't just happen. - You have to make it happen.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Talk to each other. - Try to stay in your positions.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07- Come on, every one of us, let's go.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09- Come on!

0:27:10 > 0:27:11- Good luck.

0:27:11 > 0:27:16- John and I were on the phone to each - other quite often after the draw.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20- John was trying to hype up the game.

0:27:20 > 0:27:24- After a while, I'd had enough, - so I phoned him back...

0:27:24 > 0:27:26- ..but there was no answer.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29- I left him a message, - a nice one, of course...

0:27:29 > 0:27:31- ..telling him that we were ready.

0:27:32 > 0:27:37- It was competitive, - not a game for the faint-hearted.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45- Eleri Sion is not happy.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49- It was definitely a bit tasty!

0:27:50 > 0:27:53- It was a tough match for Eleri - in the middle.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55- Listen!

0:27:55 > 0:27:58- It was a very physical game.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- A lot of passion. - Neither team wanted to lose.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06- This is an early chance - but he can't reach it!

0:28:06 > 0:28:09- They started off much better - and had a few chances.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Gary Roberts has a go himself - and it flashes past the post!

0:28:14 > 0:28:18- You must take advantage of chances - or half-chances that you get.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22- Another chance goes begging!

0:28:22 > 0:28:26- We were a bit lucky in the first - half to go in at 0-0.

0:28:27 > 0:28:31- A good ball looking for - the striker and it's a goal!

0:28:31 > 0:28:34- I can honestly say it was a superb - goal but it came from nothing.

0:28:35 > 0:28:36- Keeper!

0:28:37 > 0:28:43- Was there a push on the striker? - Surely that's a penalty.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49- Dave Bartlett - prepares to take the penalty.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Ammanford 2-0 Pwllheli.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58- We could relax a bit - after the second goal...

0:28:58 > 0:29:01- ..and they became - a bit frustrated.

0:29:01 > 0:29:05- When Chris went on, - I told him to be careful.

0:29:06 > 0:29:07- Chris is also a bouncer.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15- It's a red card for the giant, - Chris Williams.

0:29:17 > 0:29:21- You can lose your head, yes, - but you can totally lose your head!

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- I used to lose it - every once in a while.

0:29:26 > 0:29:31- Chris would still be tackling - all the way out of the stadium!

0:29:32 > 0:29:33- He's a great chap.

0:29:34 > 0:29:40- If a man is willing to apologise - after his mistakes, he'll do for me.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43- Chris will do for me - because that's what he did.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47- Pwllheli's journey is over.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56- Amlwch and Ffostrasol...

0:29:56 > 0:29:59- ..the teams of Owain Tudur Jones - and Iwan Roberts...

0:30:00 > 0:30:02- ..would contest - the second semi-final.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05- This is it, troops. - You've been working hard.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08- I told you in midweek - that you're ready, I know you are.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12- Do you remember our first session - in the gym?

0:30:12 > 0:30:15- I was turning away from the tackles.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19- I don't mind tackles like that - today. Nothing dirty - competitive.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24- Playing against OTJ's Amlwch side, - which I knew were a good side.

0:30:25 > 0:30:31- It was clear from the start that we - had the better players on the pitch.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34- But Iwan had made Ffostrasol - very organized.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36- We missed a few chances.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40- I felt that if it was 0-0 - at half-time...

0:30:41 > 0:30:46- ..I could see it going to penalties - and all that nonsense.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49- I knew that every one of us - had to be at our best.

0:30:49 > 0:30:54- We were fortunate - that Geth scored a very good goal.

0:30:54 > 0:30:57- There are a lot of options here, - Jones!

0:30:59 > 0:31:02- Without that goal - it could have been very different.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06- After the first goal, I thought - the second half would be tough.

0:31:07 > 0:31:12- A great ball in by Laura Eynon, - and it's in the back of the net!

0:31:13 > 0:31:15- Jones once again!

0:31:17 > 0:31:21- Oh, what a goal! - Dave Evans into the bottom corner.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24- A victory for Amlwch - by four goals to nil.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28- Of course they wanted to win - but it wasn't to be.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32- It was a great experience.

0:31:32 > 0:31:36- They were delighted - to be part of the Codi Gol series.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44- Before the final, another - competition had to be settled...

0:31:44 > 0:31:46- ..the Mascot Race.

0:31:48 > 0:31:53- The long-awaited race that the whole - nation has been excited about.

0:31:53 > 0:31:55- The race of the four teams' mascots.

0:31:59 > 0:32:00- Go on, Pasty!

0:32:02 > 0:32:03- Are you happy with that?

0:32:03 > 0:32:04- Are you happy with that?- - No.

0:32:46 > 0:32:49- I'm not sure the children are happy, - but I'll be in a suit...

0:32:49 > 0:32:51- ..so no-one can see me!

0:32:51 > 0:32:53- On your marks, get set...

0:32:54 > 0:32:55- WHISTLE

0:32:55 > 0:32:58- The race made famous - by Cyril the swan.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01- It's the deer and elephant.

0:33:18 > 0:33:21- So it was Ammanford v Amlwch...

0:33:21 > 0:33:26- ..in the final of Codi Gol 2016.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29- The players were pumped up.

0:33:30 > 0:33:35- When you're ready to play a game - like that, I know how they feel.

0:33:35 > 0:33:39- There's a nervousness, - a feeling in their stomach.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41- I could see it.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45- This is going to be - a tougher game than the semi-final.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49- Get out there - and give it all we've got.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51- We cannot switch off for a minute.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54- Let your football do the talking.

0:33:54 > 0:33:55- Let your football do the talking.- - Come on, boys.

0:33:58 > 0:34:03- Who would lift the cup and win - the right to travel to France?

0:34:07 > 0:34:10- Jonathan Garland, the captain...

0:34:10 > 0:34:13- ..has pulled a hamstring - heading that ball away.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17- There's a chance here. - Have they wasted it?

0:34:18 > 0:34:21- No! Gethin Jones.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24- The final was a game...

0:34:24 > 0:34:29- ..where we scored an important goal - after their captain came off.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32- Something like that - can totally change a game.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Ref!

0:34:35 > 0:34:36- We went a goal down.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40- It just changes your whole mindset.

0:34:40 > 0:34:41- You have to adjust.

0:34:42 > 0:34:45- We had to push forward - to try and score.

0:34:45 > 0:34:51- Fair play to the team, - they were all trying so hard.

0:34:52 > 0:34:56- They gave 100% - but it didn't quite happen.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- Aidy Jones. The keeper hesitated.

0:35:01 > 0:35:02- Aidy Jones again.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08- Jones! The save needed to be made.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- We're off to France now - and hoping to win again out there.

0:38:06 > 0:38:11- The beach was the first thing Amlwch - saw but they weren't sunbathing.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14- Lefty went for it.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34- The fun and games - suddenly disappeared.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09- Everyone plays for 30 minutes. - OK? Monsieur Dy, you're the captain.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15- Good luck.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- Here's the most fitting of scenes.

0:39:22 > 0:39:26- The national squad have been here - in Dinard for a while...

0:39:26 > 0:39:30- ..enjoying an amazing welcome - at every shop and street corner.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34- Two teams representing the - grass roots of their countries.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39- It's been a tough journey - for the clubs.

0:39:40 > 0:39:41- It's been exciting...

0:39:41 > 0:39:45- ..and has offered new experiences - for many individuals.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49- The French defence - is a little hesitant.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52- Jones is clean through on goal.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54- Jones is clean through on goal.- - Noooooo!

0:39:55 > 0:39:57- He must score here.

0:39:58 > 0:40:01- How many chances do they need?

0:40:01 > 0:40:04- Like the Ffostrasol game - we started so well.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10- In the first five minutes - it looked like being easy.

0:40:11 > 0:40:12- How many would we win it by?

0:40:13 > 0:40:17- Our players seemed to sit back - and assume it would be easy.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20- We hadn't even scored by then.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23- Dave Evans squares the ball.

0:40:24 > 0:40:29- Ben Jones is stepping up - to show the strikers how it's done.

0:40:30 > 0:40:33- The boys have stepped up - to score great opening goals.

0:40:34 > 0:40:38- Ben launched quite a shot with - his left foot to open the scoring.

0:40:42 > 0:40:46- The goalkeeper is off his line!

0:40:47 > 0:40:49- He's scored again, Ben Jones!

0:40:50 > 0:40:52- A very different goal.

0:40:55 > 0:40:56- Aidy Jones once again.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59- That has been deflected!

0:40:59 > 0:41:02- Why not?

0:41:03 > 0:41:06- I thought we must have won it - if Aidy was scoring goals.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09- Fair play, they showed character - to fight back.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12- Will there be a consolation goal?

0:41:12 > 0:41:15- This is the man who deserves one.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19- Eynon pushed him wide - with some good defensive work.

0:41:19 > 0:41:23- But in the end, it's in! - Christophe Da Silva is the scorer.

0:41:25 > 0:41:31- La Flem with the cross - and Da Silva scores superbly.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33- His second goal in three minutes.

0:41:34 > 0:41:38- We have an exciting conclusion.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40- Look who's turned up.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44- The Welsh assistant manager.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47- Osian arriving - seemed to change things.

0:41:47 > 0:41:52- The team lost all focus on the game.

0:41:52 > 0:41:57- It was such an - unprofessional move by Osian.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59- He should have sneaked in quietly.

0:42:00 > 0:42:03- He made a big fuss - and he wanted all the attention.

0:42:04 > 0:42:09- We were nervous towards the end - and happy to hear the final whistle.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13- The Welsh team have won.

0:42:14 > 0:42:17- It's been competitive. - He scored twice.

0:42:17 > 0:42:22- One was memorable, the other - a product of quick thinking.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26- They've waited a long time - for this moment.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31- Fittingly, perhaps, - the goalkeeper gets the honour.

0:42:32 > 0:42:33- Owain Tudur is amongst them.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- Wales' assistant manager - came to watch them.

0:42:37 > 0:42:41- The day and night is becoming - more and more memorable.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44- Amlwch FC have a cup and memories.

0:42:46 > 0:42:51- Not many clubs manage - to win the double.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54- Another cup for Amlwch.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59- Success on the field - is crucial to every club.

0:43:00 > 0:43:03- Success off the field - is also important.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06- Especially looking to the future.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11- Pwllheli wanted new facilities - for their youth teams.

0:43:12 > 0:43:16- They had an appropriate building - but it was in Caernarfon.

0:43:18 > 0:43:22- The community came together - to move it to Pwllheli.

0:43:22 > 0:43:27- This cabin brings with it a strong, - positive future for our youth teams.

0:43:29 > 0:43:34- Strong foundations are also very - important for the soccer clubs...

0:43:34 > 0:43:37- ..at Ammanford, - Ffostrasol and Amlwch.

0:43:38 > 0:43:42- The youth set up at Amlwch FC has - been separate from the first team...

0:43:43 > 0:43:46- ..but there are signs that - they are preparing to unite again...

0:43:47 > 0:43:48- ..ensuring a better future.

0:43:49 > 0:43:52- Having one big club - would benefit everyone.

0:43:52 > 0:43:57- The more members you have the easier - it is to unlock finances and grants.

0:43:59 > 0:44:03- We hope to unite the two clubs - to raise money and hold events.

0:44:05 > 0:44:09- Ammanford's old headquarters - is currently a ruin.

0:44:10 > 0:44:13- The members dream of a time - when they can rebuild there.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18- Members of the current - youth team may be the ones...

0:44:19 > 0:44:23- ..to put on the shirts of - the town's first team at Rice Road.

0:44:25 > 0:44:29- It's pretty upsetting to see the - state of the clubhouse and field.

0:44:30 > 0:44:34- They have a new home on the Rec.

0:44:36 > 0:44:39- Ammanford FC has moved on - and found a good place to be.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42- One day they might find a way - of getting back to Rice Road.

0:44:44 > 0:44:48- Ffostrasol FC was the dream - of one man, Gethin Thomas.

0:44:49 > 0:44:53- The dream is reality and the - foundations set for the future.

0:44:55 > 0:44:57- Something for Bleddyn.

0:44:57 > 0:44:58- Something for Bleddyn.- - Thank you.

0:45:02 > 0:45:07- I hope he's the first ever - Canaries fan in Ffostrasol.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12- One thing is certain.

0:45:12 > 0:45:15- Helping mould - a crew of enthusiastic parents...

0:45:15 > 0:45:17- ..into a proper football teams...

0:45:17 > 0:45:21- ..has left indelible marks - on our Welsh past masters.

0:45:23 > 0:45:29- I realised early on that there was - a special atmosphere in my group.

0:45:30 > 0:45:34- It starts with Amlwch being - quite an isolated community.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37- I couldn't have asked for better.

0:45:38 > 0:45:43- As far as a squad, - a people, a community.

0:45:43 > 0:45:45- I've made new friends.

0:45:46 > 0:45:49- I've worked with people - who I could rely upon.

0:45:50 > 0:45:53- I've seen the benefit of community.

0:45:55 > 0:46:01- Pwllheli FC can only be a success - with the help of these people.

0:46:02 > 0:46:06- John Hartson is on this level.

0:46:06 > 0:46:08- He played for huge clubs.

0:46:09 > 0:46:11- I worried whether - they'd even heard of me.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14- Did they want John?

0:46:14 > 0:46:18- The welcome I received was amazing.

0:46:18 > 0:46:19- I would do it again.

0:46:24 > 0:46:28- I commit 100% to everything I do.

0:46:31 > 0:46:33- I put my heart into it.

0:46:34 > 0:46:38- I'm only disappointed I couldn't - help Ammanford get to France.

0:46:39 > 0:46:42- I think I've made friends for life.

0:46:43 > 0:46:48- I also feel I've developed an - affinity for that area of Wales.

0:47:16 > 0:47:21- Wales are in the semi-finals - of the European Championship.

0:47:22 > 0:47:25- With the dream continuing, - it's important to note...

0:47:25 > 0:47:29- ..that the success of the national - team wouldn't be possible...

0:47:30 > 0:47:34- ..without the dedication of the - parents of local teams' youth clubs.

0:47:34 > 0:47:38- As well as Wales, Pwllheli, - Ffostrasol, Ammanford and Amlwch...

0:47:38 > 0:47:41- ..have made a bit of history.

0:47:41 > 0:47:45- A story that the parents and their - children will remember forever.
