CHARLEY PARKER SIGNS FOR THE BLUES

Frickley Athletic Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of young forward Charley Parker.

The forward arrives from NCEL Division One side South Leeds where he has been at the start of this season.

Starting out in the Harrogate AFC Academy, in recent years, Charley has proven to be a prolific striker in the National League U19 Alliance League scoring 24 goals in 23 appearances for the young Sulphurites. In his 24 goals, it included several 2+ goal hauls. During his time at Harrogate, he was also involved in a FA Youth Cup run where he got to the Third Round Proper with Harrogate AFC U18’s. During this run he featured against Guiseley (Where the Sulphurites won 2-0), Birmingham City (Where the Sulphurites won 3-1), and West Bromwich Albion (Where the Sulphurites lost 4-6 AET). With his hardwork at the academy level, he was given several opportunities to train with the Harrogate AFC first team.

He then signed for NCEL Division One side South Leeds at the beginning of the season, where he featured 14 times scoring his first senior goal in that time. Through those games he got his first taste of senior football.

Welcome to The Blues, Charley!
