Bishop’s Cleeve has strengthened its attacking options with the addition of former Cheltenham Town forward Harry Williams, who joins the club from Hungerford Town.
Williams, 29, has a long-standing connection with Bishop’s Cleeve, having spent time on loan at Kayte Lane during his youth. His impressive performances there helped him secure a professional contract with Cheltenham Town.
He made his senior debut for Cheltenham Town on October 22, 2013, coming off the bench in a commanding 3-0 League Two victory over Morecambe. Williams earned his first start six months later, playing an advanced attacking role in a 1-1 draw against Exeter City.

Throughout his career, Williams has been loaned out to Farnborough Town and Gloucester City and had a stint in the U.S. with Sacramento Republic. Upon returning to England, he has played for several clubs including Gloucester City, Swindon Supermarine, Salisbury, Cirencester Town, and Hungerford Town.
Now, Williams reunites with Bishop’s Cleeve under the management of Paul Collicutt, as the Mitres push for promotion in Southern League Division One South. The team faces Shaftesbury at home this Saturday at 3 p.m.
