"We've signed some of the best Under-19 players in the County and it's something that I am very excited about.
As a philosophy, building for the future of the football club was something that was high on my list of priorities and bringing these lads in is the first step to achieving that aim.

Alot of these lads I had put on a list when they were in Under-15 age groups, and having seen their potential and watched their progress I thought to myself "When I am back Managing at Step 5, these lads would be mature enough and more than ready for an opportunity in senior football."

Now at Droitwich, I've gone back to my list and offered the top names the chance to come & prove themselves and I'm fortunate enough to get their signings over the line."
