The 22 year old central midfielder spent last season at Halesowen Town, playing 34 games for the newly promoted Yeltz and scoring two goals, and in linking up with Brakes he has now stepped up another level. 

 

Caine is a product of the Rugby Town AFC academy, and after breaking into their first team as a 17 year old he made 112 appearances, scoring 26 goals in a near 4 year spell that was only punctuated by a brief stint at Stratford Town. 

 

After helping Rugby win promotion back to Step 4 from the United Counties League last year the youngster took the opportunity to move up to Step 3 football with Halesowen, which he siezed with both hands; catching the eye of Paul Holleran in the process, and the Brakes manager moved to enitice him to the club. 

'I'm absolutely delighted to be here,' said Elliott. 'Leamington is a fantastic club with a great manager. Obviously the club had a great season getting promotion last time out but the season coming up is going to be very tough in a good league. I’m excited and looking forward to the challenge. 

 

'Cally and I are very good mates and he did have an impact on me deciding to come here. Not too long ago we were talking about playing in the same team as for the last couple of years we have always played against each other, so it is another thing to look forward to!' 

 

Brakes manager Paul Holleran added 'There were three local youngsters everyone wanted last summer - Cally Stewart, Ewan Williams and Caine Elliott, now we've completed the trio! I'm delighted to get another local talent through the doors, Caine had a superb time at Rugby where he started out and followed that up last season at Step 3 when he moved to Halesowen.

 

'I'm looking forward to working with Caine and seeing him make the step up to Step 2 football and further develop at the club.'

 

We'd like to welcome Caine and his family to our football club and hope they enjoy their time here!
