Yeovil Town have confirmed they will not compete in the National League Cup for a second season.
The Glovers have become only the second club in the National League Premier Division to confirm they will not be entering the competition, which includes a number of Under-21s teams from Premier League clubs.
In a statement on Wednesday, the club said: “With the new campaign approaching, our focus is firmly on the league and other key competitions. After reviewing our priorities, we feel it is in the best interests of the club to concentrate fully on our primary objectives for the season ahead.
“We are aware that the National League Cup has not been a priority for many clubs in recent seasons, and we know our supporters are fully focused – like us – on achieving success where it matters most.
“As always, we are grateful for your continued backing and look forward to seeing you throughout the season.“
