Brighouse Town have made a late signing ahead of their Boxing Day trip to Evo Stik Division One North play-offs chasers Ossett Albion.
Brighouse want to rest the demons from the hammering by Witton Albion last Saturday and have signed Ben Atkinson on dual-registration terms from Curzon Ashton.
The midfielder joined Curzon in the summer after his release from Huddersfield Town.
