Known to all as Sniffer, Paul Eden joined Brakes initially in the 2001/02 season from near neighbours Racing Club Warwick. Having been plying his trade a few levels up the pyramid over at Racing Club, Sniffer did not take long to get on the goal trail for Leamington, scoring a hat trick on his home debut against Mile Oak Rovers. He scored a further four goals in his first eight game for the club, all in the same game, a 7-2 win over Bedworth United Reserves in the Coventry Telegraph Cup. He was then lured away to Rugby United, but returned to Leamington before the end of the season, notching another three goals, a hat trick in our final home league game against Polesworth North Warwicks. 

Paul only made a total of 45 appearances for Brakes over four seasons, but became a valued member of the coaching staff for several years, right up until Jason Cadden's departure from the club in October 2009.
