Eastbourne Borough are proud to announce that Arthur Grout, Alex Hobden and Ola Ademola have all signed contracts with the club.

The young trio are another example of the talent pathway we have in partnership with Bexhill College – following in the footsteps of the likes of Fletcher Holman and Leone Gravata as well as current First Team player Will Harley.

All three have featured in pre-season, and have impressed first team boss Matt Gray when given the opportunity.

Central defender Ademola made his debut appearance in the first pre-season outing, away at Farnham Town, whilst goalkeeper Hobden impressed with two penalty saves in as many games at Farnham and then at Dartford a week later.

Grout has featured in all but one of the pre-season games, and started in the middle of midfield in the win at Dulwich Hamlet.

We look forward to watching how the three players progress throughout the season!
