The small figure beside a club is where they finished in 2024/25, the last full table we hold. No figure means they were not in this division that season. Distances are straight lines between the two grounds.

Since 2024/25
New faces
Of the National League's 24 clubs, 8 were not in it the last time we held a full table. We hold 2024/25 and 2026/27, and nothing in between — so this is where we last saw them, not how they got here.
