Havant and Waterlooville Football Club are delighted to announce that, Defender, Sam Paul has agreed a deal to join the club

Paul, 20, played his grassroots football locally in Petersfield before being picked up by Reading aged 10. Sam played his trade through the ranks at Reading’s Youth levels before breaking into their Under 18’s and then Under 21’s set-up in the Berkshire club’s Category 1 Academy. Sam gained experience training with the First-Team under former Royals boss Paul Ince a couple of seasons ago to help his development and he played a part in the Young Royals side who made it to the PL2 Play-Off Semi-Final stage last campaign.

Sam has been training with the Hawks on trial and now joins up with Shaun North’s side ahead of the visit of Frome Town to Westleigh Park tomorrow afternoon!
