Six new sides will join National League South ahead of the 2026/27 campaign following confirmation of the FA’s latest National League System allocations.
Promoted clubs Billericay Town, Farnham Town, Folkestone Invicta and Walton & Hersham will all step up to National League South level after successful campaigns in 2025/26, bringing fresh opposition and new away days to the division.
They are joined by Braintree Town and Truro City, who both arrive following relegation from the National League.
Essex outfit Billericay Town return to Step 2 football after securing promotion back to National League South, while Farnham Town continue their rapid rise through the non-league pyramid with another successful season.
Kent side Folkestone Invicta also earned promotion after an impressive campaign, and Walton & Hersham make the step up having established themselves as one of the division’s standout sides last term.
