Bocking Vets Fc

17/10/2026

A great day for Bocking Vets. We saw the over 45’s first team progress in the county cup with a 3-0 win against Maldon Saints, then we had the 45’s reserves get a well deserved win over Woodham Radars 3-1 and then the over 55’s Reds with a comfortable 8–0 win over Debden Whites. All in all a great day for Bocking Vets

A big moment in history for Bocking Vets tomorrow the 19th September 2026. For the very first time in our history we will be fielding 4 veterans sides in competitive games in the Mynetgoals Essex Veterans League. We are delighted to have added an extra over 55’s side to our already existing two over 45’s sides and our over 55’s side. We have one each of the over 45’s & 55’s at home and one of each on the road.

A big day of big games for Bocking with all 4 sides looking to bag all the points, 4 strong footballing sides out there all looking to compete for the leagues this season! Good luck to all the lads!

🟢⚽ QUICK FIRE QUESTIONS | JUSTIN WARD ⚽🟢

Our latest Quick Fire Questions feature introduces Justin Ward, who is set to make his Tekkers Community FC debut this Sunday.

Justin will be part of a truly historic occasion as Tekkers field the first-ever Over 55s charity football team in the country – another proud milestone for our club.

Having first come across Tekkers after bringing his Bocking Vets side to a charity fixture, Justin was immediately impressed by the club’s values, community spirit and commitment to raising money for good causes. When the opportunity came to join our Over 55s side, it was one he couldn’t turn down.

A lifelong Liverpool supporter, Justin names the legendary Kenny Dalglish as his footballing idol, and now he’s ready to write the first chapter of his own Tekkers story.

We’re delighted to welcome Justin to the club and can’t wait to see him pull on the green and gold for the very first time this Sunday.

Good luck, Justin! 💚💛

As we build towards our historic Over 55s charity match, we’re delighted to share some words from our brand new over 55s Manager, Steve Crosdale.

Having faced our Over 45s side, Steve saw first-hand what Tekkers Community FC is all about – supporting local children, bringing communities together, and using football as a force for good.

His support, along with that of everyone at Bocking Vets FC, means a huge amount to us as we prepare for what will be the UK’s first ever Over 55s charity football team to take to the field.

This isn’t just about football. It’s about community, friendship, and raising vital funds for local children and charities. Whatever the score on the day, everyone involved will be playing for something much bigger.

A massive thank you to Steve and everyone at Bocking Vets FC and beyond for getting behind our vision.

Sunday 5th July
🕓 4:00pm Kick-Off
📍 Heybridge Swifts Football Club

Let’s make history together.
