Title: FA Youth Cup Draw
Post by: chris b on July 06, 2018, 03:13:33 PM: For those of us who like this sort of thing its FA Youth Cup time again.

Preliminary Round (w/c 3rd September)
Mickleover Sports v Boston United

First Qualifying Round (w/c 17th September)
Buxton or Blaby and Whetstone Athletic v Mickleover Sports or Boston United

I'll see you there! (Blaby and Whetstone please if we beat Mickleover again)

No chance I could do Buxton if we played them. Not entirely sure where Blaby are based, guessing Leicester area so it could be doable

Bugger! I'm off to watch baseball in the US that week. Up for the next round game if we make it though.

After a bit of googling it seems that they have a team in the Leicestershire Senior League this season.
