Alvechurch Sign Youthful Trio

Three former youngsters join following their release from Premier League clubs.

Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central club Alvechurch have revealed three new youthful arrivals at Lye Meadow.

Carrick Hill is a young defender who can play anywhere across the back four,

He joins after being released by Premier League new boys West Bromwich Albion at the end of the 2019/20 campaign.

Malvern-born, he came through from Albion`s scholarship group and was a regular in the under-18 side.

The 18-year-old has played for Church a few times throughout pre-season and looks like being a great addition to Ian Long`s squad.

A former team-mate of Hill`s at The Hawthorns, midfielder Peter Taylor, has also signed for Alvechurch.

The combative and technical midfielder joins up with the management team after a successful spell last season at Stourbridge, where he was on loan from November to December 2019.

The 20-year-old did join Church on loan in March 2020. However, due to the pandemic and subsequent lockdown, supporters didn`t get to see much of him.
Despite being released by the Baggies at the end of 2019/20, he is still being pursued by League clubs.

Pacey and exciting forward Taylor Townsend has also put pen-to-paper to join Church.

The 19-year-old was previously an academy scholar at Premier League Wolverhampton Wanderers.

He is a highly promising forward with fast feet and an eye for goal who played regularly for Wolves under-18s before being released a couple of months back.
