"Today's Non-League Paper says a deal has been done with the fledgling BT Sport to cover the Conference on their new channels next season.
"Hands have been shaken" on a £300,000 deal that will bring up to 30 games to millions of BT customers, with the new channels being dished out for free to BT Internet users.
Conference chairman Brian Lee told the paper: "It's great news, we've got an agreement in place for next season and it's the news the league wanted."
Lee also tells the paper that they are still searching for a new sponsor for next season, but that the new TV deal will aid that search."
