Penydarren BGC have seven players in the South Wales squad for their Uefa Regions Cup group matches in Bulgaria.
The Welsh League new boys, currently second in Division Three, were unbeaten in the South Wales Alliance Premier last season and earned promotion.
They also swept into the JD Sports Welsh Cup quarter-finals before going out against Bangor City, who finished runners-up in the Welsh Premier League.
