An Aston Villa XI will travel to Leamington in July for a pre-season friendly.

Villa's under 21's reached the Round of Sixteen in the UEFA Youth League last season, whilst their u18s won the Under 18 Premier League and the FA Youth Cup in a hugely successful season for Villa's academy.

Former Kidderminster Harriers and Solihull Moors boss Jimmy Shan made the step up from u18s to u21s at Bodymoor Heath in the past week, and the Villa side visiting Warwickshire will be another tough test ahead of the 2025/26 National League North season.

The game will be played on Tuesday 15 July, with a 19:30 kick off. 

As in line with all other home friendlies, tickets will be priced as follows:

Adult £12
Concession £8
Student £6
Under 18 £3
Under 12 £0

and will be released closer to the game on our online ticketing portal. Season Ticket holders gain free entry to all of our home pre-season friendlies.
