Yeovil Town pre-season and youth fixtures

Entities: Luke McCormick · Billy Rowley · Weston‑Super‑Mare · Dorchester Town · Roy O’Brien

Overview

In late July 2026 Yeovil Town’s first‑team squad played a behind‑closed‑doors pre‑season friendly against Wycombe Wanderers, losing 3‑2. Manager Billy Rowley said the match provided a benchmark for organization, pressing and defending ahead of the National League season. A few days later the club announced its Under‑19 programme, outlining a full National League U19 Alliance Division E schedule that begins in September and runs through March, with fixtures against regional opponents such as Dorchester Town, Weston‑super‑Mare and Wimborne Town. In parallel, Yeovil’s cricket side was slated to face Wellington Cricket Club on 1 August.

On 31 July the Glovers faced League Two side Newport County at Huish Park and were beaten 2‑1. Rowley described the result as “a little bit of frustration” but highlighted positives such as chance creation and the debut of new signing Ben Radcliffe. He noted the pre‑season will involve “ups and downs” as the squad prepares for the National League opener.
