The Dragons pressed on playing over the half term break rather than playing safe and blocking the dates off. That way the players not away on holiday were mostly not also deprived from playing: The Firsts were narrowly beaten 2-3 away by Staines Lammas Development in the second round of the MCFA Intermediate Cup. The theoretically ‘home’ but away…
The Firsts continued their unbeaten run whilst the U18 Boys won a cracker of a match to burst back into the footballing limelight: The Firsts beat India Gymkhana 2-1 away.

The Dragons dominated with a new starting front line that took them to a seemingly comfortable 3-0 lead. The Dragons were then harshly reminded of the realities of football when…
Thank goodness for the Old Dragons who piled on the goals to save our blushes in other directions: The Old Dragonians thumped London Samurai 9-0 at LCS. A brilliant game. The Dragons came out of the blocks on fire and were up 6-0 by half time. London Samurai barely had a sniff as the Dragon’s denied them…

Whilst the Firsts have started the 2024/24 season, for most Dragons training starts in earnest in at the beginning of September with the first matches a couple of weeks later.
