Weekend preview: Home stretch begins with Pershore test

Wednesday 3rd December 2025

Royal Wootton Bassett Town Men's First Team begin a run of three consecutive home fixtures on Saturday when they host Pershore Town in the Hellenic League Premier Division (Gerard Buxton Sports Ground, 3pm kick off).

The teams drew 1-1 when they met in Worcestershire in October, with Pershore snatching a late equaliser after Ben Cleary had put Bassett ahead.

The fixture will be Pershore's third trip to the Gerard Buxton Sports Ground - and they are looking to preserve an unbeaten record having won 2-1 on their most recent visit and drawn the teams' inaugural meeting in Wiltshire 1-1.

Admission on Saturday is £8 for adults, £5 for concessions and free for RWBTFC youth members.

On Sunday the Women's First Team visit South West Regional Women's Football League Division One North strugglers AFC Brislington (2pm kick off).

The newly promoted side have found the going difficult at tier six, boasting just a single point at the midpoint of their campaign.

Also this weekend, Saturday sees the Development team visit Letcombe (2pm kick off) - a team Bassett are jockeying for position with in the Wiltshire League Premier Division.

The sides played out a goalless draw when they met in September.
