A MESSAGE FROM OUR CHAIR

MELANIE ROBINSON CBE

On behalf of the Directors of Hampshire FA, welcome to AFC Totton’s Snows Stadium for the Servio Men’s Senior Cup Final. Reaching a final is a significant achievement. Both teams should be immensely proud of the journey they’ve taken to get here.

As we enjoy the competition, let’s remember that football is a game for everyone. We remain fully committed to our anti-discrimination campaign which seeks to raise awareness of the action taken against discrimination and poor behaviour in grassroots football. There is no place for prejudice in our sport –today is about celebrating participation, talent and good sportsmanship.

We have many representatives from the breadth of our football family to cheer

To the players, congratulations on your success so far. Play with passion, enjoy the moment and may the best team win. Good luck to you and your coaching team.

To the volunteers, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to you all! From the committee members to the matchday stewards and officials, your tireless dedication is the heartbeat of grassroots football in our County. We couldn’t do this without you.

To our valued partners and stakeholders; thank you.

We are one community, working together to create and support a memorable matchday experience. I’m very proud to be part of your team.

Thank you for your continued support of grassroots football. Enjoy the match!

To our players and staff, congratulations. You’ve navigated a long, demanding route to get here, showing resilience, discipline and togetherness at every turn Finals are never accidents They are built on habits, on standards, on moments where you chose to dig in when it would’ve been easier not to. But this achievement stretches far beyond the pitch.

Behind every fixture, every training session and every matchday moment is a group of people who rarely see the spotlight Volunteers who give up evenings, weekends and countless unseen hours to keep this club moving forward. From preparing the ground, to running the clubhouse, to making sure everything is ready long before kick-off, their contribution is woven into this journey just as much as any goal or tackle.

Finals have a way of bringing everything together Players, staff, volunteers, supporters. One club, one purpose.

That unity matters now more than ever. Because success at this level is never just about eleven on the pitch It’s about everyone pulling in the same direction

We’ve earned the right to be here. Here's to you!

-Daniel Brownlie
