This Saturday sees the beginning of the opening chapter in the history of Billinge New Street Football Club.
Our opponents for this Cheshire League - League One - clash are Upton JFC who will be buzzing after lifting the League Two championship trophy last season.
It what was an incredibly impressive campaign the Chester-based club only lost twice in 26 games - none away from home - and in the process scored 107 goals with just 31 conceded.
So, this will undoubtedly be a tough start to the season but one that we are going to absolutely relish.
With just one narrow defeat in four pre-season games, we now step into our League programme looking to have a successful season.
Saturday's game will be played at the excellent Sutton Leisure Centre that the New Street lads made their home last season and will be looking to continue their impressive form at that venue.
So, let's get a really good line down there for the start of what promises to be an exciting season.
