Three More for Non League Day

The 5th annual Non League Day takes place this year on Saturday 6 September, timed as always to coincide with an international break which gives supporters of Premier League and Championship clubs to chance to watch their local side in action.

The event has grown in size and stature every year and a number of clubs have already announced their plans for the day.
Dulwich Hamlet FC have declared that their home game against Hampton & Richmond Borough will be a 'Pay What You Like' fixture with donations welcome as fans come through the turnstiles in order to cover matchday costs.

It's 'Pay What You Can Afford' day at Handsworth Parramore as they welcome Nostell Miners Welfare to their Sandy Lane ground with anyone matching the usual admission prices of £5 and £3 going into a draw to win a pair of season tickets.

Tividale FC host Mickleover Sports and have cut admission costs to £4 for adults, £2 for concessions and members and also £2 for season ticket holders of the 92 Premier League and Football League clubs.

I've also tweeted offers from Halesowen Town FC, Oxford City FC and Stalybridge Celtic but these are just a few of the hundreds of examples of innovative ideas to boost crowds and profiles that will be announced over the next few weeks. The best place to keep tab of everything is on the Non League Day website where there is an interactive match finder and also on their Twitter page.
