Portland United Under 18s kick off their new season in style with an FA Youth Cup preliminary round tie against Millbrook FC Under 18s on Wednesday 3rd September, kick-off 7:45pm at the Camp & Satherley Stadium.

The winners of this clash will progress to face either Hamworthy Recreation U18s or Poole Town Youth in the next round week commencing 15th September.

Recent seasons have been tough going in this competition, with the young Blues falling at the first qualifying round last year against a very strong Hamble Club Under 18s. This time around, they’ll be eager to push further in the cup and make a real statement.

With a brand-new management team in place, plenty of fresh energy, and talented players hungry to impress, there’s real optimism that this group can rise to the challenge. As the first competitive match of the season, it’s the perfect chance to set the tone for the months ahead.

We wish our Under 18s the very best of luck as they take on Millbrook Under 18s, come along, get behind the lads, and let’s make it a night to remember under the lights!
