Format changes

The National Cup Board changed the rules for the new season: five substitutes could be used, within three substitute periods for all rounds; and seedings for Round 2, introduced in the previous season, were retained with the 28 seeded clubs from the JD Cymru Premier (12), JD Cymru North (8) and JD Cymru South (8) drawn away from home.

First qualifying round

The competition achieved 253 entries, surpassing the record from the previous season by ten. The first qualifying round matches were announced on 6 July at the FAW HQ in Hensol and played on the weekend of 29, 30 & 31 July 2022.[1] There were 194 clubs in the draw with fifteen Tier 3 clubs receiving byes into Qualifying Round 2, based on their League positions at the end of last season.
