YOUNG midfielder Oli Jenkins has joined Yellows on loan from Weston-super-Mare.
The 20-year-old comes to Ladysmead, having already enjoyed a loan spell this season with Pitching In Southern League Division One South Yate Town.
He moved to Yate straight after joining Weston in the summer following a successful trial at the Optima Stadium.
He had played for Yate last season, when he was voted the supporters’ player of the year as the Bluebells made a late charge for the promotion play-offs.
Prior to that, he began his career at Mangotsfield United, where he captained their Under-18 side as well as breaking into the Mangoes’ first team, making appearances during the 2022-2023 Hellenic League season and scoring 10 goals.
In July 2023, he made the move to Southern League Division One South side Cribbs FC, but a combination of injury and illness saw him unable to regularly break into their side. And he moved on to Yate in November.
Tivvy assistant-manager Ben Gerring said: “It’s great to welcome Oli to Tiverton.
“We were made aware of Oli’s availability and wasted no time in bringing him to the club. He fits our recruitment model perfectly, being a physically strong boy who wants to get forward and create chances whilst being versatile in a number of positions.
“He did well at Yate and I know Weston have high hopes for him so, again, thank you to both Scott Bartlett and Scott Rogers, for trusting us to look after him.”
Welcome to the Yellows, Oli.
