Hanworth Villa’s reward for their victory over Bishop’s Stortford in the FA Trophy is an away trip to Enfield Town in the First Round Proper of the competition.
The Isthmian League Premier Division side will provide the opposition as Villa look to continue their FA Trophy journey and make further progress in this season’s competition.
This is Hanworth Villa’s fifth appearance in the FA Trophy, as this will be the first time the club has progressed to the competition’s First Round Proper.
Of course, promotion has played its part in Villa’s progress this season, with the club needing just one victory to reach this stage of the competition. Nevertheless, the win over Bishop’s Stortford has set up an exciting challenge against Enfield Town, with Villa hoping to make the most of the opportunity and continue the campaign.
