Lowestoft Town will kick-off the new season in the Premier Division of the Ryman League after relegation from the National League North in heartbreaking fashion on the final day of the 2015/16 campaign.
The Trawlerboys location will always mean a degree of travelling but it was a really tough roll of the dice that placed them in the northern division of Non-League's second tier when they were promoted in 2014.
That meant a steady stream of lengthy away trips and a consequent struggle to attract players given the work/football balance that always has to be taken into account at that level of the game.
A Suffolk Senior Cup triumph at least ended the season on a positive note and, as always, pre-season marks a new beginning for the club.
Home friendlies against Waveney on Tuesday 5 July at 7:15pm and against Wroxham on Saturday 16 July at 3pm will have free admission to all spectators.
The Wroxham match takes place at the same time as the LTFC Beer Festival and on the Sunday, the club's Ladies team will take on West Ham United in a friendly at 1pm with free entry as well.
Having finished in the top ten of the Evo-Stik Southern League Central Division in each of the last three seasons, Northwood FC are aiming for a play-off place in 2016/17.
The Woods, in existence in their current guise since 1926, are offering season tickets for the whole of their league campaign at just £30 per person thanks to support from local business Oscar and Hunt Residential.
£30 is the cost for all categories, Adults, Concessions and Juniors and the season ticket also includes social membership to the newly-refurbished clubhouse and any league games played by the club's reserve and youth teams at Chestnut Avenue.
