Last year:
FA Cup: 5th July
FA Vase: 5th July
League: 3rd August
Given the season starts on 1st August for some teams due to the UCL Groundhop the fixtures will have to be released earlier. I believe Diamonds are due to start on August 9th, with the FA Cup extra preliminary round being played the weekend after that.
I could be wrong but don't think we'll be involved in the Vase draw as we don't enter until a later stage.

I think you're right. It'll be the Second Round Draw we'll be involved in (I think that's sometime in October/November).

I couldn't remember for certain if a number of draws took place at once - something that happens in the early rounds of the FA Cup.

Yep, it was just the initial 2 qualifying rounds that were drawn on 5th July last year -

Though 2 years ago, they did the first round draw initially as well. The 2nd round draw was 21st October last year.

The AGM is soon - I would expect League Cup fixtures released on this date.
