Valley have announced their pre-season schedule ahead of the new 2016/17 NPL season.

New Rugby manager James Jepson has already been hard at work securing player targets for next season as well as organising the pre-season schedule ahead of his first season in management as Valley prepare for a second season in the Northern Premier League.

Tom Liversedge v Kings Lynn - Rugby Town FC July 2015
It is 10 years since Rugby faced a Coventry City side - Valley lost a pre-season friendly in 2006

Three games have been scheduled in at Butlin Road against a Coventry City XI, Kettering Town (Southern League Premier) and finally Grantham Town (NPL Premier).

The Kettering game at Butlin Road will form part of a two-legged pre-season competition with an away game at Burton Latimer beforehand.

The teams will compete for the Newlands Shield - should the games finish in a draw over the two legs the tie will be decided with a penalty shootout at Butlin Road.

The Coventry City game will mark a welcome Sky Blues return to the friendly schedule after a 10-year gap since their last Butlin Road appearance.

David Kolodynski was a used substitute that day for Rugby while new Rugby captain Andy Gooding featured for the Sky Blues XI in a 0-2 defeat in 2006.

Rugby travel to UCL Premier side Cogenhoe first before a trip to Midland Football League Quorn.

A game has also been scheduled on the Butlin Road 3G astro aginst Midland Football League sides Shepshed Dynamo in July while there is another game to be played on artificial turf away at NPL Premier side Sutton Coldfield Town, who groundshare with Valley's league rivals Romulus.

The pre-season schedule is always subject to change.
