The Football Conference has announced the provisional listing of teams playing in Blue Square Bet Premier, North and South leagues next season.

Following the Rooks' dramatic victory at Hampton in the final game of the season last month, Lewes remain in Blue Square Bet South for 2010/11.

Worcester, who finished in the third relegation place below Lewes look to have been given a reprieve although they have now been moved into  Blue Square Bet North.

The final line-up is pending ratification at next month's Conference AGM but is currently (new teams in bold):

Basingstoke Town
Bishop’s Stortford
Boreham Wood
Braintree Town
Bromley
Chelmsford City
Dartford
Dorchester Town
Dover Athletic
Eastleigh
Ebbsfleet United
Farnborough
Forest Green Rovers

Hampton & Richmond Borough
Havant & Waterlooville
Lewes
Maidenhead United
Staines Town
St Albans City
Thurrock United
Welling United
Woking

With the relegation of Weymouth and Weston-Super-Mare, the promotion of Bath City and Newport County, and the transfer of Worcester into the North, there is a great opportunity for Lewes fans to build on the great support at the Hampton game and follow the Rooks on the road next season, with the majority of away trips likely to be less than two hours away.

The dates for next season have been agreed, with the first game on Saturday August 14th 2010, and the final game on Saturday April 30th 2011.
