Non-league football line-ups for 2024/25 in the National League System announced by the Football Association

The line-up for next season’s non-league divisions has been released by the Football Association.

The National League System club allocations includes all divisions from the National League down to Southern Counties East Division 1.

Ebbsfleet’s opponents in the National League are all as expected while Maidstone and Tonbridge’s new opponents in National League South are confirmed.

As expected, relegated Boreham Wood and Dorking Wanderers return to the division while Chesham United, Enfield Town, Hornchurch and Salisbury are promoted.

There’s no place for relegated Oxford City or promoted Needham Market, who are both placed in National League North.

There’s plenty of interest in Isthmian Premier following the relegation of Dartford and Dover plus Cray Valley’s promotion. They will be joined by newly-promoted Bowers and Chichester while Hendon move across from Southern Premier South.

There’s a reprieve in Isthmian South East for Beckenham Town, who finished second-bottom, following withdrawals elsewhere in the system.

They are joined by relegated Margate plus five promoted sides in AFC Croydon, Deal Town, Eastbourne Town, Erith Town and Steyning Town.

Southern Counties East Division 1 champions AFC Whyteleafe move across to Combined Counties Premier South. With Beckenham’s reprieve that means a division of 20 clubs next season with Larkfield & New Hythe promoted and Erith & Belvedere relegated from step 4.

The biggest change comes at Step 6 where Southern Counties East Division 1 is extended to 18 clubs with the footprint heading into east London.

There’s a return to the league for Tower Hamlets while Clapton and Clapton Community also make the move across from the Eastern Counties League South.

They will be joined by Kent
