Oxhey Jets F.C. are a football club based in the Watford suburb of Oxhey, England. They were established in 1972 and joined the Herts County League Division One in 1981. In the 2005-06 season, they entered the FA Cup competition for the first time. They are currently members of the Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division. Oxhey Jets have a new addition to the team, Oxhey Jets Academy, who were founded in September 2009. In the 2011/12 season, Oxhey Jets striker Lewis Putman decided to join Northwood in February 2012, but soon returned a week after. On February 29th 2012, Oxhey Jets became only the second ever Spartan South Midland team to reach the final of the Herts Senior Challenge Cup, when they overcame Cheshunt 4-3 on penalties in the Semi-Final. Returning striker Lewis Putman made a mess of his penalty in the shoot-out, crashing his effort onto the bar, leaving captain Andy Lomas to save the day with an ice cool penalty to book Jets passage to the final and left Jets singing, "OH south oxhey is wonderful, OH south oxhey is wonderful - its full of t*ts, f*nny and john elliott, OH south oxhey is wonderful !! " 32 year old student Lomas said after the game, "training is finally paying off" lewis putman scored the goal of the season to single handedly get jets to the final where they will face stevenage or bishops stortford, andy lomas however will not make the game because of university commitments where he is studying on how to increase his left foot striking ability so one day he can be better than lewis putman. colin jenkins will also not be travelling with the squad in protest at being dropped. he became the first player in jets history to score the winning goal in a game, win the coveted oxhey jets MOM award (given by john elliot)..... then get dropped the following game
