The Under 18's take on Badshot Lea this Wednesday in the FA Youth Cup.

This game will take place at Beveree so a good opportunity to support the team without travelling to their normal home venue of Bedfont Sports.

Kick off is 7.30.

A fantastic night at the Bev - both teams gave all, HRB unlucky not to get a draw conceding two late goals. HRB keeper made two great saves including one pen. Good support for both teams with great atmosphere and good ref.
Only one downside was no cups of tea or coffee available at the bar!
Fantastic night and academy team a credit to our club.

Good to hear the u18s playing back at Beveree.
Was really special for me and my mates getting to do that many years ago, and if regular crowds grow, additional gate income and bar and food takings!
May not been seen as big money, but we used to get over 100 watching, and that income, when club would usually be shut adds up.

Not sure how many or if there will be any further U18 games at the Bev. Hopefully the club will have seen the benefit of it and opening the bar. However it would also need to be weighted against pitch use and groundsman costs etc.

Looked a great attendance judging by the stream.
