Combined Counties League Premier Division North Wallingford & Crowmarsh have added two impressive signings to their squad for the 2023/24 season.

The Oxfordshire side have strengthened their forward line with the addition of former Ascot United and Flackwell Heath striker Aiden Higgs and ex-Abingdon United captain James East.

Higgs goalscoring tally was limited last season to three in 24 games but was prolific the previous season for the Heathens in the Spartan South Midlands League, scoring 17 in 27 games.

East played 32 times for United last season before his season ended through injury in March.

We are pleased to announce the signing of @JamesEast16 from Abingdon United.

James said, "I'm delighted to be joining after meeting Lee and hearing his plans for the team. I'm looking forward to joining up with the boys and hopefully, we can have a successful campaign." pic.twitter.com/h7oXH5ZpXA

Both players will undoubtedly bolster Wallingford’s chances next season of finishing higher than 10th – a position achieved in their first season back at Step 5 following promotion.
