Former Hereford analyst Alec Jenkins who has a similar role at Darlington is to be assisted this season by Jamie Lauder who was with Spennymoor last season.
Defender Ben Beals has joined Spennymoor after his release by Middlesborough.
Darlington are to have an under 23 team this season. The aim is to help players develop and make the step from youth football to adult football.
Farsley Celtic are to have a new artifical pitch installed. Their August National League North games will all be played away from home while work is carried out. Planning applications for LED floodlights and an electronic scoreboard are due to follow.
Despite being promoted Tamworth are staying part time. Manager Andy Peaks said "To be a part-time club in a full-time league is really difficult when you consider some of the wages that are being paid at this level. We have to be realistic that we don't have the budget to go and pay for 3 or 4 top quality National League players."
