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.

Come On You Dons

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 [email protected] to arrange payment.

Many thanks for your Support

So we should be bringing an end to 2019/20 season and hopefully celebrating some silverware for the club. It was a season that promised so much for the football club. We were fielding 5 sides for the first time in our 100+ history. All of the teams were competing well and there was a real chance of success. We were also competing at the highest level in the clubs history with the first team in the Premier division of the SCILW league for the first time. However with the business end of the season fast approaching the season came to an abrupt end with the lock down coming in March.
