FA Trophy first round proper draw

THE draw for the first round proper of The FA Trophy was made at Wembley this lunchtime, with the Vanarama National League big guns now entering the competition.

Holders North Ferriby United were knocked out by Jamie Vardy's former club Stocksbridge Park Steels in the third round qualifying – they have been rewarded with a tough trip to Gateshead.

Last season's beaten finalists Wrexham, meanwhile, have been drawn away at fellow National League heavyweights Tranmere Rovers.

The 32 First Round clashes will take place on Saturday, December 12, with winning clubs picking up £5,000 from The FA's prize fund.
