Hartlepool United can confirm two home pre-season fixtures ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.

Lee Clark’s side will welcome Grimsby Town to the Prestige Group Stadium on Saturday 25th July (Kick-off: 3pm) before hosting Fleetwood Town one week later on Saturday 1st August (Kick-off: 3pm).

The fixtures follow Pools’ opening four pre-season matches away from home across the North East and will provide supporters with their first opportunity to see the team in action at the Prestige Group Stadium ahead of the new season.

Grimsby Town arrive in the North East following an impressive 2025/26 campaign which saw the Mariners secure a Sky Bet League Two Play-Off place before narrowly exiting at the Semi-Final stage.

Fleetwood Town will then visit Hartlepool after finishing 15th in Sky Bet League Two last season, providing another valuable test for Clark’s squad as preparations for the new campaign continue.

Ticket information will be available in due course.
