TRANMERE Rovers kick off their 2015-16 National League season with a home game against Woking on August 8.

Gary Brabin's squad will then travel to Gateshead and Braintree Town before returning to Prenton Park to take on FC Halifax Town and Boreham Wood on Tuesday, August 18 and Saturday, August 22 respectively.

On Boxing Day, Brabin's side will play away to Macclesfield Town before welcoming Altrincham to Prenton Park two days later.

The reverse Macclesfield Town fixture will be played at home on Saturday, January 2.

The Easter weekend sees Rovers host Lincoln City before an away game at Kidderminster Harriers while the season is rounded off with a home fixture against Grimsby Town on Saturday April 30.

The manager said: "We're really looking forward to the first game of the season.

"It's good to start at home and hopefully there'll be a good atmosphere at Prenton Park.

"The preparation work is already underway and we're planning for each of the pre-season friendlies to give ourselves the best possible chance for when the season gets underway."
