Aaron Haswell extends stay with Whitby Town for another season

The former York City and Harrogate Town man made the move to the Seasiders last summer from Ossett United, and made 44 appearances in total in the last campaign, scoring on six occasions, writes Liam Ryder.

Manager Nathan Haslam said: "Aaron had a rich vain of form midway through the season, just before Christmas, but then he got a bit of an injury which set him back a bit.

"He finished the season off very strongly for us and he showed his versatility by going into left-back. It was like he'd been playing there all his career.

"I'm looking for a big season from Aaron. I think it's a season where we can really kick on."

Haswell follows Shane Bland, Harrison Beeden, Lewis Hawkins and Priestley Griffiths in deciding to stay with the Seasiders for the 2023-24 season.
