Hardings signs for Eagles

The 20-year-old from Western Australia rode for the high-flying King's Lynn last season.

'He made a couple of appearances during last season's campaign, most notably scoring three from four rides against Peterborough.

'He's an ambitious boy and we welcome that,' said Eagles's promoter Bob Brimson. 'We will be using and grooming him as best we can during next season.

'He knows a couple of our other Aussie boys very well so we have everything we need to make him fit in well.'
