BREAKING | National League key dates confirmed for 2020/21

The new Vanarama National League season is edging ever closer.

With the excitement starting to build we are delighted to announce the key dates for your diary.

This year’s highly anticipated fixture release will be on Tuesday 8^th September at 1pm.

The season begins in just over a months’ time. The National League clubs will get things underway on Saturday 3^rd October.

National League North and South sides will be in FA Cup action that day – and their battle for points kicks off with a midweek programme days later.

Because of the later than usual start, the league season will conclude on Saturday 29th May. The play-offs for each division will take place over the first three weekends of June.

The festive period is always crucial to supporters and there will of course be a full Boxing Day offering on Saturday 26^th December.

Games will also be scheduled for Monday 28^th December, with the first match of 2021 pencilled in for Saturday 2^nd January.
