In Town today
in 2007 and then moved on to Brentford 3 years later. His spell at Exeter City began in 2012
and racked up nearly 250 appearances. Craig has taken a step back from playing and has
taken his first leap into the coaching world this season.
Lewis Williams – Goalkeeper – (23)
Lewis joined the Yellows in the summer of 2019 from Wells City after impressive
performances in pre-season. He began his career at Exeter City and signed a professional
contract in 2017 before being released 12 months later. After an impressive debut season
with the club he won the Young Player of the Season award.
Jimmy Weeks – Goalkeeper (19)
Hugely promising young shot stopper who has progressed through Tiverton Town Youth
Development after leaving Torquay United’s youth system. Has signed on this summer as
back up to Lewis.
Ollie Saunders – Goalkeeper (16)
Another keeper product from our Development side. Ollie may be young, but he has already
impressed the management team here at The Ian Moorcroft Stadium with his performances
for the Youth Team and his attitude in Pre-Season leading to him being signed on for cover
for the coming season.
Jamie Richards – Centre-Back (27)
A strong left-sided Centre back, Jamie is a real coup for Tiverton. Jamie signed for Truro City
during the 2015/16 season following his release by Torquay United and went on to make 255
appearances for the White Tigers. He was named Truro City club captain after the departure
of Ben Gerring in the summer of 2018. He started his career at Southend United, where he
emerged through the ranks before going on to serve the likes of Plymouth Argyle, Weymouth
and Northern Irish outfit, Linfield. Scott Rogers has already announced Jamie will captain the
side this year.
Toby Down – Centre-Back/Midfielder (28)
A product of the Exeter City youth academy, Toby started his career as a left back but more
recently been utilised as a left sided centre-back in a back 3. Down got his career off ground
with some brief loan spells with Weymouth and Dorchester after which he signed for
Taunton Town in the 2017/18 season, playing 20 times before departing for Bideford.
Bideford was where Toby made his name, playing 109 times and scoring 8 over 4 seasons
with the Robins, he joined Tiverton after a successful trial period this summer.
Kai Fisher – Centre-Back (32)
Kai is somewhat of a local legend having a list of clubs nearly as big as himself! Kai has
turned out for Willand, Barnstaple, Bideford, Buckland Athletic, Wellington, Evesham, Bristol
Manor Farm and Exmouth Town. He played under current manager Scott Rogers at Willand
and first team Coach Richard Pears at 3 different clubs. Kai played 46 games and scored 2
goals in the last game of last season for Bideford and scored a penalty against Exeter City
in the final of the Devon St. Lukes Bowl.
