Hambledon Vets Reserves into League Cup Final

Our Vets Reserve team caused a cup giant killing by defeating Odiham Crocs from two leagues above in the semi final of the League cup. The team were fantastic on the day and could easily have won more confortably. But a Lewis Prosser strike was enough to book a place in the final.

No time to celebrate this great achievement as the final is next week. With all the recent bad weather it is a quick turn around.

The Final is at Farnham Town on Sunday the 23rd for a 2:30pm KO against Rushmoor Community FC Vets. Another team from divisions higher up. Can the Dons cause another upset. We would love it if you could join us to cheer the lads on.

Hambledon Football: Champions

Hambledon Reserves claimed the SCILW Premier Reserves Title on Saturday with a resounding 6-0 win over Surrey University. With three games to still to play the Dons sit 17 points clear of nearest rivals Wrecclesham. A fantastic achievement with not many remaining from our title winning side last season. With numerous players making the step up to the first team and a few moving away. The Reserves have been largely made up of players over 35. Still plenty of legs left in the old boys.

Many thanks to our Vets team who also stepped up to help when player shortage hit – Ben Bewsey, Rob Green and Paul Cook in particular. A run of 16 straight wins put the Dons in a great position before the first points were dropped against Guildford United in a 2-2 draw before suffering their first and only defeat of the season away to Wrecclesham. Before they regrouped to go on another unbeaten run.With three games left the Dons will be hoping to conintue their fine form.

Congrats to Matt Kiley, Carlo Moriano and the team on retaining the title.

Hambledon Vets Shirt Sponsor Raffle

We are running a Raffle for Sponsor for a New Kit for our Vets team.


Our Vets team had a very successful season winning the Division 2 Title in the Farnham and Sunday District League and getting to the Semi Final of the Runwick Cup. They will now compete in the top division for the 2021/22 season.

We are looking to get them a new kit so they can look the part for the upcoming season but appreciate times are hard for everyone so instead of one main sponsor. We have decided to do a Raffle draw to make it more affordable for local businesses to support an FA Charter Standard team and promote their business.

Tickets are £30 and select a Premiership Team once sold out the draw will be made. Hopefully at the End of Season Awards on the 2nd July.

We will post regular updates on teams sold. To secure your favourite team please email Hambledonfc@gmail.com to arrange payment.
