Saturday saw nine sides from Berkshire and the various borders in FA Vase Second Qualifying Round action with four making it through to the First Round Proper draw.

The draw, released at 1 pm on Monday 27th September, includes first-time entrants Berks County as well as Ascot United, Wokingham & Emmbrook and Wallingford Town – the latter two sides both winning penalty shootouts to advance.

The draw for the Berkshire sides sees two all-Combined Counties League fixtures while Wokingham & Emmbrook will visit Wessex League club Blackfield & Langley.

Wallingford Town will host Ascot United while County will face their toughest test yet in the competition at home to Burnham, a match that subject to confirmation will be played on the Saturday at Hill Farm Lane owing to landlords Binfield playing away at Bedfont Sports.
