Falmouth Town have announced their full pre-season schedule ahead of the 2022/23 season.
The new season will see Falmouth play in the Western League after cruising through the South West Peninsula League (SWPL) last season, winning the title with four games to go.
The six-game pre-season consists of three home and three away matches that begin on the road at winners of last season's Western League, Tavistock on Saturday, July 2.
Town will then host the inaugural Aubrey Wilkes Trophy match against Truro City the following weekend. The annual tie on July 9, kicks off at 3 pm at Bickland Park and will see Town look to avenge the 5-0 defeat from the White Tigers last season.
Falmouth will then travel to Bodieve Park to play Wadebridge Town in their next encounter in midweek on Wednesday, July 13. Town did the double over the SWPL side last season winning 7-2 and 4-2 over two matches.
Here's a reminder of our pre-season friendly schedule. 🗓
