Seven Athletic aces snapped up by boss Kittrick

Scarborough Athletic have snapped up seven of the club’s Under-19 players on first-team forms. Under-19s captain Ben Atkinson and Josh Wallace (pictured left) have turned out for Boro’s first team, while Robbie Scarborough, Aidan Thurston, Chris Pearson, George Walmsley and Dan Ward have joined them by moving into Steve Kittrick’s squad. “Ultimately it’s up to the lads, and any others who are rewarded in the same way, to grasp the opportunity with both hands and do everything possible to give themselves the best chance,” said Boro Under-19s boss Ryan Blott.
