BT Sport are delighted to announce the full schedule for the National League Play-Offs, as sides from the fifth tier battle it out to secure a place in the English Football League.

The National League season was brought to an end due to the coronavirus pandemic with league positions decided on a points-per-game basis.

But now, after months without any action, the question of who will join Barrow in League Two next season must finally be answered.

Six teams are in with a shout - from 2nd to 7th place in the table - with 4th-7th set to play an eliminator match to determine who faces 2nd and 3rd in the semi-finals.

Every Game. One Venue.

Watch every single Premier League game live with our sports-based TV deals, including 52 per season exclusively on BT Sport.

First up are the two Play-Off Eliminator matches that will take place on the Friday and Saturday of the weekend of 17-18th July. 

Fifth-placed Boreham Wood play host to Halifax Town on Friday evening, followed by 4th-placed Yeovil Town entertaining Barnet - who squeezed in by virtue of ending the campaign in seventh - go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon.

The winners of those ties are in action the following weekend where they visit the two sides who ended in second and third - Harrogate Town and Notts County respectively. 

Those semi-finals will take place on Saturday 25 July with Harrogate hosting the team who emerges from Boreham Wood v Halifax tie, before Notts County entertain the victors of Yeovil Town and Barnet.
