"I was immediately made to feel welcome by Nathan, Chris, and the management team! Their passion, enthusiasm, and desire to improve and develop each player is evident and I’m sure this will help the team succeed, as it has done in previous seasons! The training facilities are superb and playing at the Memorial stadium for our home fixtures is exciting – the club are really professional, and I just can’t wait to get started.
My aim is to have a successful experience in my first season in the National League at this club & to continue to build on the experience gained from my youth footballing journey, developing, and learning from the knowledge, skills and experience from my teammates and helping to contribute to teams’ success"

Nathen Hallett-Young on Gracie Holmes:
"Gracie is another mature, young player that we have brought in through the trails like I have said our trails have been really high in quality, Gracie has been able to provide a really high level-headedness either in midfield or at the back more than capable of maintaining the ball and moving it forward and bringing a high level of energy which is something we really wanted to add to the squad
She is really level-headed like I mentioned but she is also motivated to do what she wants whilst understanding what she needs to do to develop into the next level, she is more than keen to take on information and continue to develop. Being a younger member of the squad her job across this season is to try and win a shirt and get into that starting line-up but she is more than capable to improve and become a better player and we are really excited to have her here"
