Aveley Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of central defender Harry Beadle for the 2024/25 season from EFL League Two Side Colchester United after the expiry of his contract.

Harry, 21, progressed through the Charlton Athletic academy prior to signing his first professional contract at Colchester United in June 2021. He made his debut for The U’s in the EFL Trophy match against Gillingham, and went on to feature against Tottenham Hotspur in the same competition last season.

The central defender was on the bench for the League Two side against Mansfield Town and Oldham Athletic, but went on loan to Bishop’s Stortford during the 2022/23 season making 27 appearances for the Hertfordshire side helping them to the Isthmian Premier League title. Two of those 27 appearances actually came against us in Stortford’s 2-0 and 1-0 victory over us that season. In his 27 appearances at the heart of the defence, they kept an impressive 17 clean sheets.

Beadle joined Braintree Town on loan at the start of the 2023/24 season and made four appearances and scored against Maidstone United before then joining back on loan to Bishop’s Stortford in the National North where Harry made 32 appearances.

After the expiry of his contract at Colchester United, The Millers have secured the signing of Harry to Parkside for the upcoming 2024/25 season. We look forward to seeing him in action for The Millers.
