Chatham Town are gearing up for an exciting evening of cup draws after a super weekend for the club.

The men’s team are into the last 32 of the FA Trophy, after a 3-0 win over Plymouth Parkway on Saturday, and the following day their women’s team clinched a place in the Women’s FA Cup fourth round for the first time.
