Burgess Hill boss Ian Chapman has made Tommy Fraser and Josh Jones his first signings of the summer.
Former Albion midfielder Fraser signed as cover for the Hillians last season after leaving Lewes but will now play a full part in the Hillians’ first ever season in Ryman premier.
Pacy wideman Jones joins the Ryman south champions having had a break from football after leaving Peacehaven last season. A former Albion junior, Jones also played for Whitehawk.
Chapman said: “I worked with Tom and Josh when they were 12 at Brighton and Hove Albion for two years so I know them both very well.
“Josh will give us something different going forward. If Tom is enjoying his football and playing well we could have the best player in the league.
“Both players had offers to go to other clubs but understood what we are trying to achieve here and wanted to be a part of it.”
