BURGHFIELD FC faces a mouthwatering cup tie this weekend when they take on Banstead Rovers in the FA Sunday Cup second-round.
Burghfield are the only remaining side in Berkshire still in the competition and are hoping to book their place in the next round in Sunday’s tie.
The club are encouraging supporters to attend the match to give their support on Sunday for the game that takes place at Burnham Football Club, SL1 8JG (1pm kick-off).
Adult tickets are £5 while under 16’s get in free of charge.
Burghfield are going into the new year with a fresh look having revealed a new club badge.
A statement on their website revealed the reason behind the new crest: “Whilst the old badge has been used for many years, it had a feel of being outdated and there is no obvious representation of Burghfield within it.
“There were also inconsistencies with the versions of crests used, with several different iterations around.
“We believe that our new badge, which features Mrs Bland’s School Bell, will become more recognisable, and drawing inspiration from the history of Burghfield, better represents our local community.”
Burghfield FC player Joe Mallen helped to design the new badge.
The club continued: “We would like to say a huge thank you to our Sunday men’s player, Joe Mallen, for all of his work over the past few months in designing and creating our new club crest.
“With 42 different teams across all of our age groups, it is not practical to update and rebrand all kit and equipment immediately. We will begin work on updating these from the end of the current season.”
