It’s a knockout week, with a trio of Bucks teams in FA Cup action.
Kicking things off, our boys under-18s headed across the border to face Hereford Pegasus under-18s in the first qualifying round of the FA Youth Cup.
We're thrilled to report that the young Bucks triumphed 2-1, with goals from Leo Ravai and Bartek Zielonka carrying them through to the next round.
We look forward to the draw for the next round and hope for a home tie as a reward; congratulations to all involved!
On Saturday, 19th September, it’s the men’s first team's turn, and Kevin Wilkin’s side will aim to take the first step towards Wembley, or at least a run deeper into the competition.
They are the only team in the trio drawn at home, facing Enterprise National League North rivals Worksop Town at the SEAH Stadium in a second qualifying round tie.
Kick-off is at 3 pm, and the admission details are below.
