First fixture of 2026 sees Woods back on home soil

First fixture of 2026 sees Woods back on home soil

The Essex Senior League leaders are in town as we kick off the new year at home on Saturday afternoon!

We host Little Oakley as our action in 2026 gets underway, and we're looking to bounce back from a derby defeat against Buckhurst Hill, where we lost 3-0 last time out.

2025 saw many great memories made on home soil, with comeback victories and late winners, as well as our historical Emirates FA Cup run, which saw us reach the Third Qualifying Round, where we hosted Step Three side St Albans City.

The fans have made a huge difference at Ashton's, constantly backing the team as our twelfth man, and we need that to continue, as it always does, as we look to begin 2026 on a high!

The Woods will be boosted by the timely return of captain Sam Owusu, who has missed the previous two matches through suspension, after he was sent off for denying an obvious goalscorer opportunity in our defeat to Great Wakering Rovers at the beginning of December.
