It has been a mixed start to our second season in the Thurlow Nunn First Division South, and in a similar fashion to last season, we have been hit with a plethora of home fixtures in the opening months. This has meant that we’ve played four home games in a row before our first away game, our former groundshares Cannons Wood.

In fairness, we should’ve already had one of our away games, namely AS London, but the game was rescheduled.

With 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the league, the Hawks now sit fourth place in the league, 5 points off Hackney Wick at the top, and one point ahead of Cannons Wood, having played one game more than them. Therefore, this game is a big one for both teams, and a win would no doubt boost them high up the league table.

Cannons Wood continue to groundshare at Aveley’s Parkside Stadium, in Aveley RM15 4PX. The game will be played on Friday 16th August 2024, and will kick off at 7.45pm.

Admission is £7 for adults, £4 for concessions, £1 for Under-16s, and free for Under-12s. For those travelling by car, there is a large car park at the ground.

The nearest train station is Ockendon, which is a 2.6 mile (56 minute) walk from the ground.

We look forward to a great game, and hope to begin our away campaign with three points on the road. Come on you Hawks!
