A Huge Thank You to the Salisbury FC Supporters Club We are delighted to share that the new SALISBURY FC lettering behind the Home End has now been installed at the Ray Mac — and it simply looks fantastic. The response from supporters has been overwhelmingly positive, and it’s already added a real sense of identity and pride to our ground. This wouldn’t have been possible without the Salisbury Supporters Club, who generously donated the funds to make this happen. The Supporters Club work tirelessly behind the scenes year after year, raising money and supporting the football club in ways that are often unseen. Many of their contributions in the past have gone toward essential day-to-day equipment and running costs — things that are crucial, but not always visible. This time, their hard work has resulted in something every fan can see and enjoy, and we are incredibly grateful. On behalf of everyone at Salisbury FC: Thank you. Thank you for your continued commitment, your passion, and your belief in the club. Thank you for helping to make our matchday atmosphere even better. Thank you for supporting Salisbury FC — not just today, but always. We have more improvements and matchday experience plans ahead, and we look forward to continuing to build the Ray Mac into a place supporters are proud to call home. Up the Whites. 🤍🦅 #salisburyfc #COYW

🇦🇫 The Afghan women’s team have won for the first time since it was dissolved in 2021. Football is still banned for women in their home country but a FIFA sanctioned refugee team is now representing the nation. This was the last of three games in the FIFA Unites Women's Series.

Al Hilal have officially touched down in Rwanda, where they’ll be competing in the 2025/26 Premier League season. 🇷🇼⚽️ With no domestic league action possible in Sudan due to the ongoing unrest, the country’s top two clubs Al Hilal and Al Merriekh have once again been forced to find a temporary home. Last season, both giants featured in the Mauritania Premier League. This time, they’ll be playing in Rwanda, marking another chapter in their remarkable journey to keep Sudanese football alive despite all odds. 💙🇸🇩 #AfricanFootball #AlHilal
