WITNEY United will start their pre-season campaign with a trip to Spartan South Midlands League side Buckingham Athletic on July 18.

Buckingham finished in mid-table in Division 1 of the South Midlands League last season, and should provide a tricky opening test for Andy Lyne’s men.

Meanwhile, Witney have been drawn against North Berks League side Faringdon Town in the first round of the Clanfield-hosted Jim Newman Cup.

Witney, who were knocked out at the semi-final stage last season, will take on Faringdon on Saturday, August 1, with a 2pm kick-off.

The winners of this match will play Clanfield or Shrivenham on August 4, with a kick-off of 7.30pm.
