The 2024–25 Cymru North season (also known as the 2024–25 JD Cymru North season for sponsorship reasons) is the fifth season of the second-tier northern region football league in the Welsh football pyramid.

Teams

The league consisted of 16 clubs - 12 teams remaining from the previous season, one team relegated from the Cymru Premier, and three promoted from the Ardal Leagues.

Penrhyncoch and Flint Mountain were promoted as champions of the 2023–24 Ardal NE and 2023–24 Ardal NW respectively, while Ardal NW runners-up Llay Welfare defeated Ardal NE third-placed team Llanuwchllyn in the Ardal Northern play-off to also earn promotion. The three promoted teams replaced the three relegated 2023–24 Cymru North teams (Chirk AAA, Llanidloes Town, and Porthmadog). Colwyn Bay were relegated from the 2023–24 Cymru Premier, replacing the promoted 2023–24 Cymru North runners-up (Flint Town United).
