We'll be travelling to Surrey on 22nd October 2016 to play Banstead Athletic FC.

Merland Rise is the venue.
The Buildbase FA Vase draw was made at Wembley on Monday lunchtime and the Crows came out of the hat for draw number 65, Banstead Athletic FC came out as the home side and we came out as the away side.
Therefore, we'll be heading over to Surrey on 22nd October 2016 instead of playing away at Beckenham Town FC that day in the SCEFL Premier Division. The match will kick off at the same time though, 3:00pm.
Banstead Athletic FC are known as The A's and play their football in the Combined Counties Football League, Division 1, which is the same level as our last opponents in the Buildbase FA Vase, Gravesham Borough.
They play at Merland Rise, Tadworth, Surrey KT20 5JG, which is around 35 miles from Crowborough by road and will take you around 65 minutes travelling time, M25 traffic permitting of course.
Their website says it's near the Tadworth Leisure and Community Centre and the nearest railway station is Tattenham Corner whilst they say that the Metro 420 and 460 will get you to the ground.
Their home form in the league to date is as follows: played 3, won 1, drew 1 and lost 1, goals for 6 and goals against 5 at the time of writing.
They are better away it seems, if results are anything to go by, having played 5 away, winning 4, no draws and only 1defeat, goals for 22, goals against 8 therefore, they have 16 points in total.
They were founded in 1944 and play in Amber and Black shirts, Black shorts and Black socks.
We hope as many of you as possible make the effort to support the team in the Buildbase FA Vase First Round Proper fixture.
