I see OCN have withdrawn from the FA Vase, the draw for which was announced today, and are not listed on Full-Time in the Hellenic Premier Division which now only has 19 teams. Have they folded?
City Youth have a bye in the PR of the FA Youth Cup and are at home to Holmer Green in 1Q.

Looks from several sources reporting on the Hellenic AGM yesterday that Oxford City Nomads have definitely disbanded/folded.
Seems a shame after the team had proved to be a good stepping-stone for players progressing from the City Youth setup. Can anyone comment on the rationale behind the decision?
P.S. I see the Vets have disappeared from the two Hellenic Veterans divisions.

Justin's item on the City site lays out the reasons for the disappearance of Nomads very clearly. And it's excellent to see that a well-defined route for young players to progress through the City setup is being developed.
As Nomads had some degree of independence from City I wonder if they might be able at some point to 'revert' to being Quarry Nomads again and keep that historic name going in the City? Probably not, but it's a thought.

Are the Vets still going this season? I see they're still on the website under 'Teams', but not listed on Full-Time in the Hellenic.

I believe we aren’t running a Vets side this year
