Two home games for FC Halifax Town
FC Halifax Town will face a couple of familiar faces in pre-season with Accrington Stanley and York City scheduled to visit the Shay for friendlies.
The game against League Two Accrington Stanley is scheduled to take place on Saturday July 18, but is subject to police approval.
Blue Square Premier York City, who were beaten in last weekend's FA Trophy final at Wembley, will visit the Shay on Saturday August 1.
Town last played Accrington at home on Boxing Day 2005 when goals from Lewis Killeen and John Grant helped them to a 2-2 draw.
The Shaymen went on to reach the Conference play offs at the end of that season with Stanley claiming the title.
York were last at the Shay in February 2008 when they drew 2-2 - Mark Whitehouse and Nathan Joynes scored for Halifax
In addition to the two home games, Neil Aspin's side will travel to Unibond Premier North Ferriby United on Saturday August 8.
Town played a pre-season game against the Humbersiders in July 2000 under Mark Lillis when Gary Jones bagged a hat-trick in a 3-2 win.
SUPPORTERS team AFC Halifax beat Kidderminster Harriers 4-1 at Aggborough with a fine display of football.
Paul Cartman scored twice with Andy Hemblys and Adam Probets also on target.
