Team Derby will start to defend their National Badminton League title at home to Surrey Smashers as part of the 2015/16 fixtures.
The NBL returns in November for a second season wherein a number of fixtures will be shown live on Sky Sports. Six teams will be competing in a series of six Monday evening match-nights running through to March 21.
The Smashers who topped the table at the end of the 2014-15 regular season, but failed to nab the title last May will have their opening fixture against MK Badminton at Surrey Sports Park on November 2.
Loughborough Sport, the current runners-up will return to action as they take on the University of Nottingham.
Meanwhile, reigning champs Team Derby will have to wait until match-night two to start their campaign as they host the Smashers on November 30, while Birmingham Lions start the season against the University of Nottingham on the same evening.
The Championship's Finals Day is expected to be held on May 8.
