The Wellmen eased into Round 2 of the NEWFA Challenge cup after convincing 13-0 victory over Bradley Park.

The game started well for Holywell Town and the Wellmen took the lead after 5 minutes through Danny Dobbins who headed home from a Tony Roebuck corner. Dobbins then turned provider for Roebuck who's powerful header found the top corner with half hour played before Luke Edwards put Town in control on 38 minutes with a great solo goal.
Marc Connolly brace just before half time gave the Wellmen a 5-0 lead at the interval.

The second half was barely a couple of minutes old when Josh Robertson grabbed Town's 6th before Connolly completed his hat trick a couple of minutes later. The hard working Charlie Hughes got a deserved goal on 56 minutes then Robertson scored his second of the game on the hour mark.

Substitute Jay Wilkes got on the scoresheet after 67 minutes before Hughes scored his second after a great run past the defenders. Dobbins scored his second of the game in the final ten minutes before Wilkes scored his second and Town's 13th, turning home Josh Robertson's effort on 81 minutes.

The result saw the Wellmen through to the next round and the draw will be made in due course.
