Earlier today (Fri 8 July) the FA released details of this seasons FA cup competitions.
The Emirates FA Cup
Although Ash United applied for inclusion in this coming seasons FA Cup competition, the application was, regrettably, unsuccessful. A large number of new clubs (around 50) are entering the competition - some, no doubt, because they gained promotion to senior divisions in their league competitions. We shall, however, apply for inclusion in the FA Cup next season.
FA Vase
We will be competing in this seasons FA Vase and, in the First Round Qualifying, have been drawn at home to play Tytherington Rocks. The Rocks play in Tytherington, Wotton-Under-Edge, South Gloucestershire, which is just up the road from Bristol.
Tytherington Rocks play in the Ulhsport Hellenic League, Division One West.
First Round Qualifying matches take place on Saturday 10th September, 2016.
