STOURPORT Swifts will have a tough task to progress in the various cup competitions next season after details of the draws emerged.
The Southern League Division One West club must travel to Derbyshire to take on Buxton in the FA Cup Preliminary Qualifying Round.
If they progress from the September 4 match-up, a tie at Walshes Meadow with Rushall Olympic or Bourne Town awaits two weeks later.
In the FA Trophy, Swifts will entertain Sutton Coldfield in the first round on November 6.
The Southern League draw has given Swifts an attractive county derby at Bromsgrove Rovers in October.
Meanwhile, the club have confirmed five pre-season friendlies with Coca-Cola Football League Two side Shrewsbury's visit sure to create interest.
They are still trying to arrange an extra match, possibly with Hereford.
