When is the FA Trophy Preliminary Round draw

Bracknell Town were the only Berkshire side to take part in the Extra Preliminary Round of 2019/20 Buildbase FA Trophy with Thatcham Town given a bye.

We would normally expect the draw for the next round to be made the following Monday at 1pm by the Football Association, but on this occasion, as with the early rounds of the FA Cup the draw as already been made.

Much will depend of course on the opening fixtures on Saturday 28th September but as it stands, the draw for Bracknell and Thatcham looks like this:

• Barnstaple Town vs Thatcham Town
• Ramsgate or Haywards Heath Town vs Bracknell Town

The FA Trophy Preliminary Round fixtures are due to be played on Saturday 12th October 2019. The full draw is available here.
