'Gate Keep Talented Youngsters

By Josh Cole

We are pleased to confirm that youngsters, Vinnie Bowman and Gabriel Duo, will be a part of our squad for the upcoming Isthmian South-East campaign!

Vinnie joined up with the post-16 academy at the start of last season and then joined the U18’s & U23’s, where he impressed and got his chances to play for the first team!

Gabriel Duo featured in the U23’s title winning campaign and was part of the first team squad towards the backend of the 2023/24 season which included starts against Hornchurch and Wingate & Finchley!

Ben Greenhalgh commented on having these young players for his squad this season: “Vinnie knows where he stands with us, we think he’s got so much potential and could have a great career ahead of him. He’s a good character and has the right attitude to strive for more which we noticed in some of the academy sessions, and we’ve always had great feedback from the academy games he played in. He has a great future and we’re very proud that we brought him into the mix last season, and we are pleased to continue working with him for this campaign!”

“Gabs proved how far effort and application can take you in one season. We brought him in during pre-season last year and he focused a lot of the season on the U23’s where they had a very successful campaign. It was great to see him jump at this opportunity and worked his way into the first team. He’s a credit and an influence to all Margate youth players wanting to be the future of this club!”
