In the countdown to the end of 2017, Kent FA is doing a year in review to go through some of the successes we have had over the past 12 months!

Some of the highlights we will be covering include, Dover Athletic winning the 128th Kent Reliance Senior Cup Final back in May, Shepway Fathers Football League winning at the FA National Just Play Awards in June, and the Kent FA Youth Council celebrating their 5th Birthday all the way back in January.

Each day we will be sharing a snapshot from that month.
