Hoddesdon Town will once again embark on an FA Vase journey this coming season, some fifty years after winning the inaugural competition at Wembley Stadium.

News reached us on Friday afternoon that we have received a bye in the 1st Qualifying Round and will therefore play AWAY to Clapton Community in the 2nd Qualifying Round, on Saturday the 21st of September.

Plans are afoot this coming season to celebrate the 50th anniversary of that famous win back in 1975, and what better way commemorate than victory in the competition we are so famously known for. We hope as many of you as possible will be able to travel and join us for the game.
