DEVIZES will kick off life as a South West level club with a home match when the 2013-14 season gets under way in September.

The Saddlebacks, who reached level six in the league system for the first time in their history by winning the Southern Counties South title last month, will host Northamptonshire outfit Towcestrians at London Road when their South West One East campaign begins on Saturday, September 7.

The Wiltshire outfit then travel to captain Tom Collins forner club, Windsor, on the second weekend of the season.

New Chippenham head coach Danny Thomas' tenure in charge of the county's top-ranked side will also begin at home, the Allington Field men host Gloucestershire's Old Centralians.

The Gloucester outfit were promoted from South West One East last season, but start the new campaign with a five-point deduction after failing to fulfil their final league fixture of the 2012-13 campaign.

Chippenham make the long trip to Newton Abbot on the second weekend.

The provisional fixture list for next season sees the remaining Wiltshire sides start their campaigns a week later (September 14).

Royal Wootton Bassett return to Southern Counties North, after a spell in the South division, with a trip to High Wycombe on the opening day.

In Southern Counties South, Corsham go to Weymouth on day one, while last season's runners up Trowbridge are at new boys Wells.

Reigning back-to-back Dorset & Wilts One North champions Chippenham 2nd begin their bid for a third title at Bradford on Avon as runners up Pewsey Vale travel to Bath's Combe Down.

Minety also host Melksham on the opening day, while in Two North, reelgated sides Marlborough and Avonvale meet at the Common.
