We are delighted to offer our first scholarship for next season to 16-year-old Luke Hannant.

Luke, who lives in Halvergate, has been with us for 18 months, having previously played for Norwich City. He plays in central midfield and is a player of huge potential.

Luke can pass the ball well with both feet, gets around the pitch, creates and scores goals. He has two fantastic role models in Sam Ives and Luke Berry so we hope that Luke can follow in their footsteps and fulfil his undoubted potential.

He will train every Monday with the scholars whilst completing his GCSEs and will join us full-time for pre-season training in July.

The next few months will see the recruitment process in full swing and we hope that some of our other Under-16 players can emulate his achievement in being offered a scholarship.
