Jamie Godbold, manager of Pitching In Southern Football League Premier Division South club Lowestoft Town, has announced three players returning for the 2021/22 season after signing contracts at Crown Meadow.
Goalkeeper Luis Tibbles and midfield duo Owen Murphy and Louis McIntosh will all be returning to the Trawlerboys when pre-season games resume in July.
Tibbles joined Lowestoft in June 2019 from Isthmian North side Bury Town, where he had been since August 2017.
He was previously with Wroxham and AFC Sudbury and also played for Kirkley & Pakefield in the Thurlow Nunn League.
A great shot-stopper, in November 2018, he was called into an England FA XI side by England C manager Paul Fairclough to take part in a tour of the Falkland Islands.
Equally at home at full-back or in midfield, Murphy joined the Trawlerboys in September 2020 from Isthmian North outfit Dereham Town.
He broke into Dereham`s first-team whilst still at school in the 2016/17 season, making over 50 first appearances before his 18th birthday.
Due to the pandemic, Murphy has been restricted to 10 appearances for Lowestoft.
McIntosh became a first-year academy scholar at Norwich City in July 2015.
He is an attacking midfielder who joined the Canaries as an 8-year-old.
In May 2017 he signed a professional contract but in May 2019, he left Carrow Road when his contract ended after struggling with injuries in 2018/19.
He then joined Lowestoft ahead of the 2019/20 campaign and has played 45 times for the Trawlerboys, scoring 6 goals.
Godbold told his club`s website: "I'm delighted to be keeping these lads with us. They are all great young men and more than capable of contributing the success we want to start having on the football pitch again".
