The 2022–23 FA Cup qualifying rounds opened the 142nd edition of the FA Cup, the world's oldest association football single knockout competition, organised by The Football Association, the governing body for the sport in England. 640 teams in the 5th to 10th tier of English football competed across six rounds for 32 spots in the First round proper.

Eligibility

Applications to enter qualifying opened on 25 February 2022 and closed on 1 April 2022.[1] The entry list, round exemptions and scheduling was confirmed on 1 July 2022.[2] [3] 640 teams from Level 5 to Level 9 of the English football league system (otherwise known as Steps 1 to 5 of the National League System) were eligible to compete.

In previous years Level 10 clubs were a prominent feature in the competition but since 2021–22 The FA has cut off their automatic eligibility.[4] This was the result of the National League System being reformed to what the FA described as a "perfect 1–2–4–8–16 divisional model".[5] A first phase was implemented in 2018/19 before a final stage saw over 100 clubs effectively promoted in 2021–22.[6] This meant more teams now competed between Level 5 to 9 which consequently for the FA Cup saw Level 10 clubs dropped to a "subject to availability" basis instead. In the event that others do not enter, vacancies are filled by 10th tier applicants ranked by PPG in the previous league season.

For the 2022–23 edition, 11 vacancies were filled by 10th tier clubs; Abbey Hey, Andover New Street, Brixham, Folland Sports, Hinckley, Liskeard Athletic, New Mills, Newport (IOW), Radford, Warminster Town, and Wincanton Town.

Vacancies are created when eligible teams from Level 5 to 9 decide against entering or have their application rejected. For 2022–23, there were 11 such clubs:

Staines Town (9) did not appear on the entry list either before the club resigned from their league altogether on 4 July 2022.[8] Hilltop were awarded a late promotion to fulfill the vacancy created. A Level 10 club when entry was announced three days prior, Hilltop were also without a FA Cup place before they were then accepted as a replacement to Jersey.[9]

Amongst the 640 clubs entered into qualifying, nine were debutants; Buckhurst Hill, Bury AFC, Darlaston Town, Golcar United, Hilltop, Midhurst & Easebourne, Roffey, Shefford Town & Campton, and Worcester Raiders.[10]

Format

The qualifying competition was a single-elimination tournament consisting of six rounds and 640 teams. 32 winners in the final round were awarded a place in the main competition beginning in November. Teams entered at different stages depending on their position in the English pyramid. All 9th and 10th tier teams began in the opening, Extra-Preliminary round and had to win six matches to qualify. All 8th tier teams were ranked on last season's PPG, except newly promoted teams automatically ranked towards the bottom and newly relegated teams ranked towards the top; Then the 95 lowest ranked teams entered at the Extra-Preliminary round and the 64 highest ranked teams entered at the preliminary round. Teams entering at the preliminary round had to win five matches to qualify. All 7th tier teams entered at the 1st qualifying round and had to win 4 matches to qualify. 6th tier teams entered at the 2nd qualifying round and had to win three matches to qualify. 5th tier teams entered at the final, 4th qualifying round and had to win one match to qualify.

Matches ending in a tie were replayed once and thereafter decided by extra time and penalties if the scores remained level. Ties were played on a geographical basis, starting with 10 regionalised pots in the Extra-Preliminary and preliminary rounds, and gradually reducing further into the draw. Whilst the division of the English football league system correlated closer to club density, the FA Cup grouped teams based more on travel distance. Therefore, pots could consist of an unequal number of teams.

Extra preliminary round

The extra preliminary and preliminary rounds were drawn on 8 July 2022. Teams were drawn into 10 regionalised groups loosely based on travel distance. More club-dense regions drew bigger pot sizes; One contained 86 teams loosely correlated to the Combined Counties North and South, the Southern Combination, and the Southern Counties East Level 9 Divisions. Regions with fewer clubs drew smaller pot sizes combining fewer divisions; One pot contained just 20 teams loosely correlating to the Western League Level 9 division.[13]

416 teams entered at this round; 310 from Level 9 (plus ten Level 10 replacements) and the 95 lowest ranked clubs from Level 8 (plus a Level 10 replacement for Guernsey). A team at this stage must win six matches should it qualify as one of the 32 non-league clubs in the FA Cup proper; as many victories as it takes a Premier League or Championship side to win the whole competition.[14]

Review

The round featured a record 208 fixtures plus replays. Amongst them, Holyport won their first ever match in the competition in what was their 9th Extra–Preliminary appearance; Keynsham Town set a record for the most consecutive campaigns ending at this stage (with 12); and Newhaven's 10–0 win over Canterbury City was the 8th highest margin of victory in replay history.[49]

Newport (IOW) teenager, Finn Smith, became the youngest ever FA Cup goalscorer a day after his 16th birthday.[50] Elsewhere, Moneyfields forward, Callum Laycock, scored all the goals in their 5–0 win over Bemerton Heath Harlequins.

Review

136 fixtures plus replays took place. After taking nine attempts to win their first FA Cup game in the previous round, Holyport won their second at the first time of asking.[53] All five debutants that made it through to this round also won again.

Notes

First qualifying round

The draw for the first qualifying round was made on 22 August 2022.[54] Teams were drawn into 5 regionalised groups loosely based on the maximum distance travelled. More club dense regions drew bigger pot sizes combining more divisions; two pots contained 50 teams, another two contained 42, and one contained 40.[55]

224 teams made an appearance; 88 newly entered from Level 7 and 136 winners from the previous round. The first of five teams from Wales, Merthyr Town, began at this stage. This round included one club from level 10, Wincanton Town, the lowest ranked team still standing. Five debutants also remained in the competition; Buckhurst Hill, Bury AFC, Midhurst & Easebourne, Shefford Town & Campton, and Worcester Raiders.[56]
