Halse United First 'v' Witney Town First I Saturday 5th September 2026 I KO 2pm I Syresham Sports & Social Club I Oxfordshire Senior League Premier Division

THE BOYS ARE BACK!

Halse United’s first team step into the Oxfordshire Senior League Premier Division this Saturday, opening their campaign at home against newly promoted Witney Town. It’s a moment the club has been building toward all summer — and one that carries real excitement across the squad, staff, and supporters.
The management team have been extremely busy throughout the off‑season, strengthening the squad with several exciting new signings who have already impressed in training and pre‑season fixtures. Alongside the on‑pitch additions, the club has secured numerous new sponsors, reflecting the growing support behind the team and the ambition driving the season ahead. The atmosphere around the group is confident, focused, and full of belief.

Saturday’s opponents, Witney Town, arrive with momentum of their own after earning promotion last season. Newly promoted sides often bring energy, togetherness, and a fearless approach, making them a challenging first test. But Halse’s preparations have been sharp, and the players know exactly what is required: intensity from the first whistle, discipline without the ball, and the bravery to play their football.

The squad’s development over the summer has been clear to see — stronger depth, more competition for places, and a refreshed identity on the pitch. The lads are ready. The coaching staff are ready. And now, it’s about delivering when it matters.

As Saturday approaches, excitement continues to build around the club. The opening fixture is always special, and this one feels even more so given the progress made behind the scenes.

We encourage everyone to come down, get behind the team, and support your black and white as Halse United begin their Premier Division journey. The stage is set, the work has been done, and the lads are eager to make a statement.
