Berks County build squad for Thames Valley Premier League push

The Swords have been steadily improving under Lee Simpson

Berks County joint managers Ellis Woods and Lee Simpson have spent the summer building a squad that can compete in the Thames Valley Premier League.

Managers’ player of the year 18/19 Dan Money has re-signed with Berks County for the upcoming season. The former Bracknell Town and Binfield central midfielder will be club captain of the Swords in 19/20.

Other players who have committed to Berks County include Tyler Hudson, Harvey Griffiths, Sean Hanley, Dan Hayward, Jake Keohane, Josh Griggs, Tom Nower, Ben Kay and goalkeeper Tom Williams though the Swords did lose centre back Steve Lee to Reading City earlier in the summer.

Another one…

This time it's club captain @money_dan…

Dan continues to lead by example week after week! Both @Leesimpson90 and @EllisWoods are delighted Dan's still committed to the cause this season! 👐#swords #10YBC #10YearsOfCounty #nonleaguefootball #signings pic.twitter.com/e18k3CmkX6
