The two Vale clubs in the Cymru Leagues have been nominated in the monthly awards for September.

Barry Town United's Steve Jenkins is among the contenders for the Cymru Premier's manager of the month award.

The Jenner Park club remained unbeaten in the league during September with two wins and two draws - the highlight of which was a 2-1 victory at Connah's Quay Nomads.

Former Wales international Jenkins returned to the managerial hot seat over the summer following a stint behind the scenes.

The other nominees for manager of the month are Caernarfon Town's Richard Davies and Penybont's Rhys Griffiths.

The Cymru Premier's top scorer, Ollie Hulbert, is nominated for Player of the Month after scoring four league goals in September, including a brace against Connah's Quay and the winner against Aberystwyth Town last weekend.

Hulbert faces competition from Sion Bradley of The New Saints, Paolo Mendes of Caernarfon and Penybont captain Kane Owen.

Llantwit Major boss Ben Stait is among the nominees for the Cymru South's manager of the month.

As per their top flight neighbours, Llantwit were unbeaten following draws at Pontypridd and Trethomas Bluebirds and a 1-0 win at home to Ammanford.

Tom Tweedy, who scored the only goal in that victory, gets a player of the month nod for his two league goals, having also booked Llantwit's place in the second round of the Welsh Cup with a quick fire brace against Ely Rangers.

The other Manager of the Month nominees are Dean Brown of Penrhiwceiber Rangers and Liam Williams of Cambrian United.

Also nominated for Player of the Month are Carmarthen Town skipper Noah Daley, Cambrian United's Cameron Keetch and Ammanford's Callum Thomas.

The winners of the awards will be decided via a league and independent panel along with a fans vote on social media.
