PRE-SEASON: First three friendly fixtures announced

We are delighted to announce the first three first-team friendly fixtures of our pre-season this summer.

Thanks to the Football Association outlining guidelines for grassroots football to return, we have pencilled in a trio of games to aid the first-team in their preparations for the new campaign.

Danny Grainger’s squad are set for an exciting and diverse calendar over August and September to gear up for the start of the delayed 2020-21 term.

Workington AFC will face: (kick-offs TBC)

• Carlisle City [A] – Tuesday, August 4
• Penrith AFC [A] – Saturday, August 8
• Lancaster City [H] – Saturday, September 5

Those first two trips East and North respectively are scheduled to be behind closed doors, however the hope is for fans to enjoy some football before things properly get going.

The visit of the Dolly Blues could be our first opportunity to welcome fans back to Borough Park.

In due course, it will be subject to COVID-19 risk assessments and match being lodged with the Northern Premier League and FA.

We hope to see you there but in the meantime, keep safe to help beat the virus.

Stay tuned to our social media channels for more information and pre-season announcements.
