The first recruit of the Summer, pictured in the Club’s new 3rd kit, is vastly experienced defender, 33-year-old Paul Downing.
Having spent last season at Kidderminster Harriers, narrowly missing out on promotion to the National League, Paul also has Hereford FC on his non-league CV, alongside a wealth of football league experience with West Bromwich Albion, Walsall, Blackburn Rovers, and Portsmouth.
Speaking on the signing of Paul, Manager Chris Cornes had to say: “Paul’s signing is a huge one for the Club and shows our intent with what we want to achieve this coming season.
“Having played the majority of his career in League Football, his experience will be invaluable to us.
“He is a local lad as well, so it ticked all of the boxes for us both when we spoke about coming to the Club.”
Welcome to Worcester City, Paul.
Alongside the signing of Paul, the Club are delighted to share a first look at the new 3rd kit for the upcoming season. Continuing our partnership with Macron, the new shirts feature an all-white styling with patterned sleeves and will be available for pre-order later this summer.
The Club are also excited to share news that IT EPOS Group are our new away and 3rd kit front-of-shirt sponsor for the upcoming season. The IT EPOS Group offer IT management services, electronic point of sale equipment, digital marketing expertise and office supplies, and their branding will now adorn both shirts.
