In addition, Hughes said: “We have a really good setup here and a good squad of players.
“I am looking forward immensely to leading the club into the Ardal Leagues.
“It will be a big challenge and will mean a lot of hard work for us all, however it is a challenge I am relishing.”
Welcoming Hughes into his new post, their chairman Wyn Lewis added: “As far as we were concerned, he was the obvious and unanimous choice to take the club into the Ardal Leagues which is a new and exciting challenge for this club.
“Llyr has a huge wealth of experience of playing at a high level and also managerial experience.
