BALLYMENA United's first pre-season friendly has been announced in the form of English visitors, Cambridge United.

Blue Square Conference side Cambridge United, agonisingly missed out on a place in the Football League last season as they lost to Torquay United in the Conference play-off final at Wembley in May.

The U's managed by former Blackpool and Hull City midfielder Gary Brabin will travel to Warden Street on Saturday, 25th July, 2009.

Keep checking back to the official Ballymena United website for further details of the club's pre-season preparations ahead of the 2009/2010 IFA Premiership season.
