We’re excited to announce the signing of dynamic wing-back Archy Taylor!
The 21-year-old has climbed the Non-League pyramid in recent seasons following a breakout season with Westfield in which he made 23 assists, scored four goals, and won the Aldershot Senior Cup at the EBB Stadium, scoring a penalty in the shootout!
This earned him a move to Hampton & Richmond Borough, where he made appearances for the Enterprise National League South side last season, chipping in with three goals and six assists.

On signing Archy, Tommy Widdrington said: “Archy is a lad we’ve kept our eyes on as his performances at Hampton & Richmond last season were both consistent and very positive.”
“He can play anywhere down the right side and is very positive in his approach to being in possession of the ball. That said I think it’s safe to say he also likes a tackle!”
“Again, having met him and showed him our vision for him within our set up – which he agreed with – we are delighted to have him on board and hope his career path continues on the upward curve it’s been on so far.”
“He may well be a new name for most Shots fans but like many before him, I’m sure he’ll have their full backing as we look forward to the new campaign.”
Head of Recruitment, Jamie Hedges, added: “We’re delighted Archy has decided to join us. He’s an exciting talent who’s on an upwards trajectory climbing from Step 4 to Step 2 and now to Step 1, taking it all in his stride.”
“He has athleticism and energy in abundance, but also real quality in the final third too. Hopefully in a full time environment we can help him progress even further.”
Welcome to the Shots, Archy!
