The match will take place at The Hive inside the first-team stadium on Wednesday 16th October at 7.30pm.

In the last round the Under-18s put on an impressive performance against Ware FC to secure a 4-0 victory away from home.

Academy Manager James Thorne is expecting a similar display in what he describes as a ‘special occasion’ for the young Bees.

“The match is a brilliant opportunity for our players to play in the FA Youth Cup. They only get two chances to play in the competition so it is key they make the most of what is a fantastic experience. 

“It is however important that they play the game not the occasion. They need to stick to their principles and play how we want them to play. It is also key to get a positive result.

“They will also have the opportunity to play in front of their home supporters at their home ground which is an experience they will remember for the rest of their lives.

“Let’s hope they put on a good show!”

Tickets are £5 for general admission, £2 for concessions and free to BFC members and Barton Rovers season ticket holders. All tickets will be in the East Stand and parking is £1.
