A5 rivals added to pre-season schedule

Hinckley AFC can announce two further pre-season friendlies against two A5 rivals this July.

Local rivals Nuneaton Borough, relegated from the National League North last season, will be our first Saturday home friendly, visiting the Welfare Ground on Saturday 20th July.

The 3pm kick off will be a family affair as new AFC boss Courtney Belford goes up against dad Dale, the former Hinckley manager who is now Jimmy Ginnelly’s assistant at Liberty Way.

Before that, Belford will take his side up the A5 to Tamworth to face the Lambs’ Under 21s side on Saturday 13th July.

It means we now have four friendlies confirmed, with games against Heather St John’s (6th July) and Barwell (30th July) confirmed over the weekend.
