Prestatyn Town Football Club is a Welsh association football club based in Prestatyn, Denbighshire. Up until the 2007–08 season, the club played its football in the Cymru Alliance, North Wales' feeder league to the Welsh Premier League. However, after running away with the league title in 2007–08, the club was promoted to the Welsh Premier League for the 2008–09 season. Their promotion was dependent on their ground, Bastion Road, meeting certain criteria, however, which meant that stadium upgrades had to be in place by 1 May 2008.[1] Despite objections from local residents, the club was granted planning permission to install floodlights at Bastion Road on 23 April 2008,[2] and their promotion to the Welsh Premier League was ratified on 15 May. The club maintained Premier League status for a second season with a 15th-place finish in 2008–09.
