Championship Conference
Caernarfon Town 0-2 Bala Town: Bala secured second spot - qualifying for next season's Europa Conference League - with victory at The Oval. Will Evans headed home their opening goal 10 minutes after the break, and Dean Ebbe slotted home a second with 15 minutes remaining. Caernarfon were reduced to 10 men after Aaron Simpson was red carded for a challenge on Bradley Bauress.
Newtown 0-2 The New Saints: Newtown's hopes of finishing second ended following defeat at home to champions The New Saints. Ryan Brobbel headed home Danny Redmond's corner to open the scoring, before Jake Canavan's first league goal sealed the win in stoppage time.
Penybont 0-3 Flint Town United: Two Mark Cadwallader goals, including a penalty after Ben Nash's opening goal, saw Flint win as Penybont's poor form continued.
Play-Off Conference
Cardiff Met 5-0 Cefn Druids: Emlyn Lewis gave Cardiff Met a ninth-minute lead with a spectacular effort from inside his own half, before Elliot Evans scored from a corner to double the advantage 11 minutes later. Lewis scored his second of the second half, Harry Owen added a fourth and Lewis Rees netted in stoppage time to complete Met's win as Druids endured another afternoon to forget in a season to forget.
Connah's Quay Nomads 3-0 Haverfordwest County: Callum Morris scored twice as Nomads secured their top-flight status with victory at Deeside Stadium. Morris scored from the penalty spot on the half-hour mark following a handball and added a second before the break - his 81st goal for Nomads. Declan Poole's curling effort in the second half sealed victory over a County side who had already secured their Cymru Premier spot for next season.
Barry Town United 0-1 Aberystwyth Town: Barry Town face relegation after Aberystwyth secured safety with a deserved win at Jenner Park thanks to Steff Davies' header in the first half. Barry's Jordan Cotterill was sent-off after he was shown a second yellow for diving with three minutes remaining. Barry's fate now depends on the outcome of Tier 1 licencing appeals.
