The Woodlands club, who last played a league fixture in March last year, will start their National Two North campaign on September 4.

This will the be final 30-game season for Fylde before the National Leagues are reduced from 16 clubs to 14 for 2022/23, meaning four fewer fixtures.

They then visit Huddersfield before meeting the first of the newly promoted clubs in Harrogate at The Woodlands on September 25.

The relegation of local rivals Preston Grasshoppers means the visitors to Fylde for the Christmas game on December 18 will be Chester.

The reverse fixtures in the second half of the season come in the same order as those in the first half, except that the Tynedale rematch is the final game on April 30.
