March to the Arch: St Blazey make it through in the Vase.

The F.A.Vase tracker got stated with the 1st Qualifying Round on Saturday. St Blazey beat Dartmouth  3-2 and will face either Cullompton Rangers or Crediton United who will have to replay after a 3-3 draw.

Our F.A.Youth Cup starts on Wednesday night, when St Albans City entertain Thurrock. If your in the area pop along 'support your local'.
Thought I would take this opportunity to remind you how the trackers work.

‘March to the Arch’ Step by Step.

1) A team will be selected in the extra preliminary round or preliminary round of each tournament connected to the feature. The selected team must be drawn at home in the first round.

2) We will follow our selected team in the relevant round of that tournament. We will then allocate points as per the scoring system in accordance with the match result and follow the winning team from that tie into the next round.

3) The winning team in each round featured will become our selected side and the process will be repeated until the final.

4) The winners of our trackers will be the team who have accumulated the most points. We will present a certificate at the end of each tournament to the victors.
