This is will be Hove's first Squad training match of the new season, but it will also be the first game played on our brand new training pitch under the floodlights. If all goes well the pitch and the squad will have a good run out and manage to get a good grasp as to where they are at this moment in time against what will be a well drilled mixture of Raiders, Raider's A's and Colt's players.

Hove will then Travel away on Saturday to Effingham and Leatherhead for the first full friendly of the year. Again this match will be a whole squad game.

The last game will be against Old Reigations, also being played away, on the 3rd September. With this match being so close the the start of the season (the week before both teams first league games), this will be a 2 squad game with the Firsts and the Second's playing.
