Seymour is latest to commit to Worthing’s National League adventure
Taylor Seymour is the latest Worthing FC to commit to their debut season in the National League – and wants to make more Rebels history.
The local lad turned goalkeeping hero has agreed a deal to stay at Woodside – another piece in the squad jigsaw the Rebels are looking to complete before the big kick-off.
He follows Joe Cook, Sam Beard and Bailey Smith in agreeing terms – while George Cox, Harry Ransom, Joel Colbran, Matt Burgess, Oliver Godziemski, Teddy Jenks and Wiktor Makowski were already contracted for 26-27.
Brad Dolaghan and Razzaq Coleman De-Graft have had deal extensions confirmed and the Rebels have signed midfield duo Noor Husin and Tyrique Clarke – while football director Nathan Bowen has indicated more additions are imminent.

Seymour, who grew up watching Worthing from the terraces, played a pivotal role in helping the Reds lift the National South title last season.
He asserted himself as No1 in the final 12 matches of the campaign – that after several setbacks.
After two serious knee injuries and lengthy recoveries, Seymour made his senior debut for the Rebels in a Sussex Senior Cup win over Jarvis Brook last October.
The former Crawley, Pompey and Burgess Hill ‘keeper was later given his opportunity in the league by Adam Hinshelwood.
Seymour said: “I’m delighted to sign a new deal at the club I love as we prepare for our first season in the National League.
“It felt amazing to play a part in rewarding the fans for their loyalty to the team by winning the title.
“Coming from the terraces, I know how much this club means to so many people and playing for this team is a massive privilege. I’m looking forward to what the future holds and hopefully making more history down Woodside."
