DIVISION two hot favourites Welly Old Boys will play their home matches on the Fort Hill school pitch, which was passed fit by an inspection committee on Monday.
Joint managers Jason and Wayne Barber can include a number of former New Inn players, who have cleared their suspensions with the Hampshire FA, for the visit of AFC Berg Reserves.
With the Berg first team fixture called off and Dave Brickwood in charge for the first month, Welly may have a surprise in store.
Tadley Calleva A have Murray Knox and Leigh Cooling, the ex-Broomsquire Hotel manager, in charge, so newcomers Old Basing could be in for a shock.
Heathpark have a difficult first match at Stratton Park against Rangers Reserves, while just-relegated AFC Aldermaston B entertain Headley Athletic Reserves, whose manager, Graham Bassett, is hoping for a better season.
Baughurst AFC will be using the Silchester United pitch this season, but the first game for new manager Kevin Thorne is at Herriard Sports.
