Local sides find out cup opponents

Monday, 26 September 2022 01:00

The draws for the third qualifying round of the FA Trophy and the first round of the FA Vase have been made today.

Local sides are involved in the national non-league cup competitions and have the following draws.

The Izuzu FA Trophy:

Salisbury FC have been drawn away to Truro City. The game is due to be played on Saturday 8th October. However, this is subject to change as Truro ground share with Plymouth Parkway, who have also been drawn at home. Both matches are due to be played on the same day, so one will have to move.

The Izuzu FA Vase:

Two local sides were in the hat for today's first-round draw resulting in the following ties.

Laverstock & Ford FC will make the trip up the A36 to Bradford Upon Avon to face Bradford Town FC. Laverstock overcame Andover Town, 4-2, to reach the first round.

Bemerton Heath Harlequins will travel to Devon to face Cullompton Rangers of the South West Peninsula League. Harlequins beat Fleetlands FC 3-0 away from home on Saturday to qualify for the competition proper.

The games are due to be played on Saturday 22nd October.
