Vernon Cooper’s Ystradgynlais side, who went through their league and cup campaigns undefeated last season, will seek to add the SSE Swalec Plate title to the Bowl trophy they won at the Millennium Stadium in May when they travel 2.5 miles down the B 4599 on 17 October.

The eight minute car journey to home of Division 1 West Central side Ystalyfera will be a real test for last season’s Division 3 West Central champions, who beat Cambrian Welfare 17-12 to win the SSESwalec Bowl.

The 2015 Plate winners, Ystrad Rhondda, will have home advantage in the first round when they host Dowlais. Ystrad beat Newcastle Emlyn 25-17 in the final at the Millennium Stadium last season to win the title.

Semi-finalists Penallta will also be at home, hosting Cwmbran, while Skewen, who also reached the last four, have received a bye.
