       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.
