Newark Town Football Club announces pre-season friendly games this July against Nettleham FC, Leicester Nirvana, Sleaford Town, AFC Mansfield, Asfordby FC, and Lincoln United FC

Following a successful season Newark Town are hoping to keep up the pace with a series of exciting pre-season games this summer.

The club has been hard at work behind the scenes arranging six pre-season Men's First Team friendlies to keep fans entertained during the break.

Throughout July the Blues will play four home games at the YMCA Community and Activity Village in Newark, against Nettleham FC (July 3, kick off at 7.45pm), Leicester Nirvana (July 6, 3pm), Sleaford Town (July 10, 7.45pm), and AFC Mansfield (July 19, 7.45pm).

There will also be two away fixtures at Asfordby FC (July 13, 3pm), and Lincoln United FC (July 17, 7.45pm).

It follows the team’s second season in the United Counties League Division 1 which saw the club go one better than last year, reaching the playoff final after finishing third in the league.

But for the second year running it was not to be for The Blues who lost their playoff match against Harrowby United two goals to one.

However, the team was heartened by the support they received from a crowd of nearly 1,000 spectators turning out at the YMCA, with hopes that this support continues next season.

Season tickets are also now on sale, which will entitle holders to free entry at all four pre-season home matches.
