Whitby Town Discover 2026/27 Northern Premier League Fixtures
Whitby Town supporters can now start planning their 2026/27 campaign after the Northern Premier League released the fixtures for the new season.
The Blues face an early test on the road, travelling to Leek Town on Saturday 8 August for their opening fixture before returning to the Towbar Express Stadium three days later to host Guiseley in the first home game of the campaign.
Whitby's opening month promises plenty of intrigue, with home clashes against Ilkeston Town and Warrington Town, alongside away trips to Ashton United, Cleethorpes Town and Quorn.
Supporters will not have to wait long for some eye-catching fixtures, with former National League North side Alfreton Town visiting the Towbar Express Stadium on Bank Holiday Monday, 31 August, before the return fixture in Derbyshire takes place on the New Year's weekend.
Among the standout dates in the diary is the first meeting with newly-promoted Emley, with the Seasiders travelling to West Yorkshire on 7 November before welcoming the newcomers to Whitby in the final match of the season on 17 April.
The festive period sees Lee Bullock's side host Redcar Athletic on Boxing Day in what promises to be a well-attended local encounter. Whitby then begin 2027 with a trip to Alfreton Town before welcoming Warrington Rylands to the Towbar Express Stadium on 9 January.
The campaign enters its final stretch with a demanding run-in that includes meetings with Bury, Stockton Town and Emley. Whitby's final away fixture comes at Stockton Town on 10 April before the season concludes at home to Emley a week later on Saturday 17 April.
