Handsworth Parramore stalwart Richard Tootle has signed for Stocksbridge Park Steels on dual-registration terms.
Tootle leaves Handsworth after 200 first team appearances after coming through their very successful youth system to join Chris Hilton’s Evo Stik Division One South side.
During his time with Handsworth, before and after the merger with Parramore, Tootle won the NCEL Division One title, the President’s Cup and League Cup.
Peter Duffield said: “I wish Toots good luck and best wishes with his move and thank him for his contribution during my time here.
“His attitude has been first class. He has been a big part of the pre and post merger success here at Handsworth over a number of years.”
