One week later, the Bees make the lengthy trip to Launceston in the Walter C Parson League Cup before a visit to last season’s nemesis Okehampton on Saturday, October 26.
Bridport have four league fixtures in November and four in December, when they will hope to avoid the bad weather that flooded their headquarters twice before Christmas.
Chris Herbst’s men are this year away to Axminster Town on Boxing Day, with their first fixture of 2025 coming on Saturday, January 4 away to Bovey Tracey.
Bridport have requested their spare weekend for Saturday, January 18 and travel to Middlezoy seven days later.
Four fixtures follow for February, with the majority of March and April set aside for rearranged matches in light of expected postponements due to poor weather.
The only confirmed games in these months are Stoke Gabriel & Torbay Police away on Saturday, March 8 and Axminster Town at home on Good Friday, the 18th of April.
The Peninsula League season is scheduled to finish on Saturday, April 26.
