Bracknell Town and Binfield were the big winners locally as they were both drawn out of the hat on the home side of the 2017/18 FA Cup Extra Preliminary Round draw.

The draw – released at 1pm by the FA on Friday afternoon – see’s the Robins drawn at home to Cowes Sports from the Isle of Wight while Binfield will host Chichester City at Hill Farm Lane.

Should both sides progress – because of the nature of the draw – they will be at home again in the Preliminary Round with Bracknell against Winchester City at Larges Lane and Binfield hosting either Horndean or Melksham Town.

You can see the local draw for all East Berkshire sides here while the full nationwide draw for the Extra Preliminary Round is here.

Ties to be played Saturday 5th August.
