Torquay United will play their final regular season match of the 2025/26 campaign away against Tonbridge Angels this Saturday, 25 April 2026, with a 12:30pm kickoff. The club enters the match having already secured a playoff position, finishing 5th in the National League South with 77 points from 45 games.
This match concludes a season that saw significant changes at the club, including the appointment of manager Jimmy Ball on 18 March 2026. Ball, the son of the late 1966 England World Cup winner Alan Ball, took charge following the departure of Paul Wotton. Reflecting on his appointment, Ball stated that leading the squad is a fantastic moment in his career and a real honour.
The upcoming away fixture follows the team’s final home game of the season, which took place on 18 April 2026 at Plainmoor against Hemel Hempstead Town. That match ended in a 2-1 defeat for Torquay.
Alongside the team’s preparations for the playoffs, which begin on 28 April 2026, the club has launched a new membership scheme called Forever Yellow. This initiative is a joint effort between Torquay United FC and the Torquay United Supporters Trust, which currently holds 28.65% of the club’s shares.
The scheme offers supporters four monthly payment tiers: Bronze at £2, Silver at £5, Gold at £10, and Platinum at £25. According to the club, the partnership aims to generate £100,000 per year to support the future financial sustainability of the team.
