Yellamen in dreamland after beating Newport Pagnell Town - Ascot United Men beat Newport Pagnell Town at Wembley on Sunday May 21st 2023
Kai Walters wrote his name into Ascot United folklore after his 80th-minute header won the Isuzu FA Vase against holders Newport Pagnell Town on Sunday. Substitute Walters, in his last game for The Yellamen, got just enough on Sean McCormack’s right wing cross to score the only goal and round off a double winning season for Jamie Tompkins’ side.
Having already won the Combined Counties League Premier Division North, a Wembley outing was the icing on the cake for The Racecourse outfit, although by the end of the afternoon they’d added the proverbial cherries, candles and everything else on top.

Thames Hospice relies very heavily on public fundraising to provide nursing, medical and theraputic care, free of charge - as well as support for families. Virtual Hospice is now also vailable for those who don't want to go into the Hospice itself - which now has 28 beds in the fine new Braywood Lake premises - recently offically opened by Queen Elizabeth II. It was sobering to hear that Thames Hospice costs £19 a year to run!
For the opening night, the QP sold tickets at half price (£7 only) with £5 of every ticket sold going to their nominated charity, Thames Hospice. Coworth Park also donated a bottle of Veuve Cliquot which was raffled during the opening evening.

On Sunday, crowds gathered with picnics for the Coronation Big Lunch, and there were community performances on stage organised by the Windsor Platinum Jubilee Event Team. Acts on the community stage included the Windsor Schools’ Choir and their Coronation Song, the Signs of Celebration Choir and Euphoria Rock Band.

After winning the ISFA Regional Under 11, 7 a side football tournament earlier in the year and with the opportunity to compete in the ISFA National tournament as the prize, the Papplewick Under 11 A team travelled up to St George's Park, the home of England football, to compete in the 24 team competition.
