That is due to DAZN choosing to screen all the final games in the National League, plus Merthyr v Fylde in the North and Worthing v Ebbsfleet in the South.
Because all games on the final weekend have to kick off at the same time, it means that every match will be at 12.30pm.
However, it means that you end up with some clubs and fans travelling miles to get to the early kick off. One such example is Peterborough Sports coming to Hereford.
While there is set to be over 4,000 home fans in attendance, how many will Peterborough - already relegated and on the back of an 8-0 thrashing at Worksop - take? Considering at the time of writing, they had only sold 12 tickets, it will probably be no more than 30.
It's a good three hour drive from Peterborough, so their fans would probably have to leave at 8am at the latest.
The early kick off also clashes with a junior football tournament at nearby Westfields, so a lot of youngsters and their families won't be able to go.
Scarborough also have an arduous journey to Bedford, but at least they are fighting for a play-off place. But how many will Marine take to Spennymoor for a mid-table clash, especially on the back of a long trip to Hereford on Tuesday when they lost in the last minute?
In the South, you've got Torquay having to make a 532-mile round trip to Kent to face Tonbridge. At least they need the points to secure a play-off place and will no doubt still travel in numbers. Still something the Gulls fans can do without though when it's at least a four hour journey without stopping.
Meanwhile in the National League, you have the ridiculous situation of Brackley having a near 500-mile round trip to Carlisle. Another relegated club, Truro aren't far behind in terms of mileage by having to go to Aldershot, while sixth-bottom Eastleigh making a 466-mile round trip to Scunthorpe.
Television companies have not thought about the impact kick off times have on supporters for a long time. Fans of Premier League and Championship clubs have been used to it for years, and now those of League One and Two clubs with Sky selecting two games from each respective league for a 12.30pm kick off.
But now, non-league fans are also feeling the effects. However, could the final round of games be at 5.30pm? DAZN regularly show games at that time, like last Saturday when Braintree v Rochdale and York v Yeovil were both shown.
Last season, the National League finished on Monday, May 5, with all games kicking off at . National League North and South finished on Saturday, April 26 with all matches being at 3pm. In 2023/24, the National League games were at 12.15pm on Saturday, April 20 with the North and South being at 3pm on the same day.
The difference then was that no North or South games were televised. Of course, the TV companies always dictate things and pay the National League big money. But sometimes, a consideration of supporters wouldn't go amiss.
