Pickering Town, Whitby Town and Scarborough Athletic were all in today's draw for the 2nd Qualifying Round of the Emirates FA Cup.

Pickering Town will play their first game in the second qualifying round for over two decades when they host Runcorn Linnets.

Whitby Town will play at either Hyde United or Prescot Cables.

Scarborough Athletic will also play away at either Hallam or Ashton United.

Each club will earn £1,125 for playing in the round, a win would net them £3,375.

The fixtures will be played on the weekend of Saturday 13th September.

While the second qualifying round marks Scarborough's first appearance in this year's competition, Whitby and Pickering have both already played qualifying rounds.

Whitby secured their second qualifying round place with a 2-1 win at Lancaster City on Saturday.

Pickering Town are in the second qualifying round for the first time in 22 years after beating Redcar Athletic 5-2. The Pikes had already beaten Penrith and Easington Colliery in the earlier qualifying rounds.
