Our opponents

Last season was a successful one for Basingstoke completing the treble. Alongside their success in the North Hants Cup, they also lifted the Hampshire Senior Cup and
won the Isthmian League South Central division. Having earned promotion, they have consolidated impressively in their new division, finishing 12th in the Southern League Premier Division South (step 3) table. That's three levels higher than us in Wessex League Division One (step 6).

Their top scorer this season is Bradley Wilson with 16 goals in the league. That's off the back of scoring a remarkable 37 goals in the 'Stoke's promotion campaign last year.
They currently play at the Hampshire FA complex at Winklebury having being forced out of their town centre ground The Camrose in 2019. Attendances are still high, however, having attracted over 1,000 fans on four occasions at home this season.
