The draw was made today for the 2nd Round Proper of the Isuzu FA Vase and the Deres will make the short trip down to Maidstone to face Bearsted following the weekends win at home to Wallingford & Crowmarsh.

The Bears are currently 10th in the SCEFL Premier Division with four wins, two draws and four defeats from their first ten games. Their run to the second round includes a 5-2 win against Bexhill United in the 1st Qualifying Round, a 5-4 penalty shoot out in against Kennington following a 1-1 draw in the 2nd qualifying round and a 4-2 win away to Yateley United in the 1st Round Proper.

The tie will take place on Saturday 9th November 2024 meaning we have a run of three away games following our next home game on Saturday which is funnily enough against Bearsted.

Ticket prices and details will be confirmed in due course.
