The Suffolk side will help Jamie Howell’s side kick the season off at the Lane on Saturday, August 13 - but just 16 days later Worthing, just up from their play-off success in Ryman one south, will be in town for an August Monday bank holiday clash on August 29.

Bognor will host Havant on Boxing Day in a game that should see Jason Prior’s return to the Lane, and perhaps Alfie Rutherford’s, and a week later they will head to Worthing for another bank-holiday Monday encounter on January 2.
