Yeovil Town legends will return to Huish Park for a special anniversary match next year. The club confirmed the event will take place on Sunday, May 2, 2027, as reported by the Chard and Ilminster News.
The match against a South West Legends side commemorates the 25th anniversary of Yeovil Town's FA Trophy final victory at Villa Park in 2002. It also serves as a fundraiser for the Adam Stansfield Foundation. The former Yeovil striker, who scored the winning goal in that final, passed away in 2010. The foundation continues his legacy.
Who will play in the legends match?
Fans can expect to see familiar faces from different eras of Yeovil Town's recent history. The club says the full list of players will be announced in the lead-up to the game. The event aims to bring together heroes from the club's memorable FA Trophy run and other successful periods.
This comes as Yeovil Town look ahead to a new season after finishing 16th in the England National League last term. They ended the 2025 campaign with 51 points from 46 games, scoring 48 goals and conceding 68. You can review the full standings from that season.
