Fifth season of the second-tier Southern Welsh football

Football league season

The 2025–26 Cymru South season (also known as the 2025–26 JD Cymru South season for sponsorship reasons) is the sixth season of the second-tier Southern region football in Welsh football pyramid. The season began on 25 July 2025 and will conclude on 18 April 2026.[1]

The league consisted of sixteen teams; twelve teams remaining from the previous season, three teams promoted from the Ardal Leagues, and one team relegated from the Cymru Premier. With the Cymru Premier expanding to sixteen teams for the following season, this was the first season where the top three teams will be promoted to the Cymru Premier, and one team will be relegated to third division.[2][3]

The following teams changed division since the 2024–25 season.

The promoted teams were the 2024–25 Ardal SE champions Treowen Stars, the 2024–25 Ardal SW champions Cardiff Draconians, and the 2024–25 Ardal Southern play-off winners Ynyshir Albions.[4][5][6] They replaced the 2024–25 Cymru South bottom three teams; Goytre United, Penrhiwceiber Rangers, and Taff’s Well.

The relegated team was the 2024–25 Cymru Premier bottom-placed team Aberystwyth Town (ending a 23-season streak in the top tier of Welsh football). They replaced the 2024–25 Cymru South champions Llanelli Town.
