FA Trophy First Round Draw

The four clubs flying the Ryman League's flag in the FA Trophy know who awaits them in the next round after the draw for the first round was made at Wembley at lunchtime on Monday.

Ryman South Burgess Hill Town, 3-2 winners over Ryman Premier Leatherhead on Saturday, will travel to Conference Premier Aldershot Town while Tonbridge Angels will host Leiston, handed a bye into the first round, if the Ryman Premier club can overcome Conference South Bromley when the sides replay after a 0-0 stalemate at the Longmead Stadium on Saturday.

Ryman North AFC Sudbury drew 1-1 with EVO-STIK League Southern St Neots at the weekend and the winners of their replay will travel to another Conference Premier outfit, Braintree Town.

All ties must be played over the weekend starting Friday 12 December with the winners picking up £5,000 in prize money.
