Torquay United’s pre-season friendly away to Cullompton Rangers has been brought forward by 24 hours. The Gulls will now travel to Speeds Meadow for a 7pm kick-off on Tuesday, 7 July 2026, as confirmed by the club’s official website.
The fixture, part of Jimmy Ball’s preparations for the new National League South campaign, was originally set for Wednesday, 8 July. Richard Pears’ Cullompton side finished third in the South West Peninsula League Premier Division (East) last season and will provide a stern early test following Torquay’s opening pre-season clash at Buckland three days earlier.
Admission at Speeds Meadow costs £6 for adults and £4 for concessions, while under-16s can enter free of charge. The match offers supporters an early glimpse of the squad shaping up for the 2026/27 season.
The trip to Cullompton continues the pre-season programme of friendlies against local non-league opposition, helping players reach match sharpness.
