In the FA Cup, the world's greatest club cup competition will be coming once more to Norton Lane as we entertain newly promoted Plymouth Parkway on August 11th. The Devonians take their place in the Toolstation Western League Premier Division this season after winning the South West Peninsula League by eleven points in 2017/18.

The winners of this tie would then entertain Southern League side Larkhall Athletic a fortnight later on Saturday 25th August. The winners will receive £2,250 this season with the losers getting £750 as the FA have increased prize money this year.

In the FA Vase, the Grove face Cornish opposition in the shape of Newquay on Saturday September 1st. The visitors finished 14th out of 20 in the Peninsula League last season, and the winners of this tie will travel to Homers Heath to face Buckland Athletic two weeks later on Saturday 15th September.
