BT Sport to show 14 live National League games between August and October as the race to reach the Football League gets under way.

BT Sport and the Vanarama National League are delighted to announce that no fewer than fourteen live matches will be broadcast on BT Sport 1 between August and October.

After a thrilling, topsy-turvy campaign that saw Leyton Orient and Salford City earn promotion to League Two, BT Sport is once again the only place you can follow the hunt to reach the Football League.

All 24 clubs in the National League will be shown live by the broadcaster within the first three months of the campaign.

The curtain raiser to the National League season sees Stockport County welcome Maidenhead United to Edgeley Park in a lunchtime kick off on Saturday, August 3.

Notts County are the early favourites to earn promotion back to the Football League and their mission to return to the promised land begins with a Saturday evening clash with Barnet a week later on August 10.

Sixteen years after they reached the Football League for the first time, Yeovil Town return to the National League after finishing bottom of fourth tier last season.

The Somerset club's first appearance on BT Sport screens comes on Saturday, August 17, when they travel to north to take on Barrow.

One of the most eye-catching games from the opening months of the season comes on Saturday, September 7, as last year's beaten play-off finalists AFC Fylde host Eastleigh at Mill Farm.

The Lancashire side suffered Wembley heartbreak at the hands of Salford City at the end of last season and Dave Challinor's side will be hopeful of going one better this year.

All eyes will be on north Wales on October 12 as Wrexham go head-to-head with second favourites Chesterfield in what could prove to be a potential top-of-the-table clash.

As ever, a live stream will also be available on the BT Sport app and on BTSport.com for each match we broadcast on TV this season.

And if you’re not yet a BT Sport subscriber and want to watch the National League all season long, we can get you set up in just 15 minutes right here!
