Kettering Town will kick-off the new Vanarama National League North season with a midweek trip to Gloucester City.
The Poppies’ campaign will actually start on Saturday, October 3 when they will play in the second qualifying round of the Emirates FA Cup.
But the league season will begin in earnest just three days later with a clash at Gloucester while Southport will be the opponents for the first league game of the campaign at Latimer Park on Saturday, October 10.
The first month is completed by a trip to relegated AFC Fylde (October 17), a home clash with Guiseley (October 24) and a match at York City on October 31.

The festive period brings with it a double-header of Northamptonshire derbies with Paul Cox’s team hosting Brackley Town on Boxing Day before heading to St James Park on January 2 while a trip to Alfreton Town is sandwiched in between on Monday, December 28.
The late start to the season means a late finish and the league campaign will be completed on Saturday, May 29 with a clash at Chester.
