Established in 1919, the club has progressed steadily via promotions from the Ipswich & District Leagues, and transfer from the Isthmian League to the Southern League Premier, Central Division at the end of 2017-18 , where , at the time this is penned, Needham Market stand  in a handy 10th  spot!

 

In the FA Trophy, Market have been flying this season being the only Step 3 club left in the prestigious competition at the Quarter Final stage.

 

And County`s hosts will not be overawed with a visit from the blues either, having despatched National League sides Wealdstone ( 2-1) ,and Yeovil 8-7 on penalties  away at the Huish in impressive style with keeper Marcus Garnham contributing 4 penalty saves to a magnificent win. Market then saw off Dartford of National League South at Bloomfield`s to set up a historic first encounter with the Hatters!

 

It is a fascinating tie, and hedgegrower cannot wait to recount what will be an epic Quarter Final battle!
