Newly-promoted Phoenix Sports will start their first FA Trophy campaign with a trip to Whyteleafe after the early rounds of this season's competition were drawn on Friday.

Kent clubs Faversham, Folkestone, Whitstable and Cray were all handed home ties in the preliminary round, which offers prize money of £2,500 to the winners.

Tonbridge Angels and VCD Athletic, who play in the Ryman League Premier Division, enter the Trophy in the first qualifying round, which will be played four weeks later.
