Cook of the Vale

Raynes Park Vale have announced the signing of centre half Ollie Cook. Ollie spent last season with Leatherhead, starring as they reached the Play Off Final and playing forty times whilst scoring eight goals from the back, and has played another ten times for the Tanners this season. 

Prior to his move to Fetcham Grove he was operating a division higher at Carshalton Athletic. Ollie made thirty nine Robins appearances during the 22-23 season, and weighed in with six goals. 

Ollie played youth football for Fulham before joining the Southampton Academy, and played for the Saints at Under 18, Under 21 and Under 23 level before his time at St Mary's came to an end. He also had some loan time in the north west, with Barrow. He then signed for Merstham, and was part of the Moatsiders side which made it all the way to our Premier Play Off Final at the end of the 2018-19 campaign. He left Moatside along with most of the first team to follow boss Hayden Bird to Kingstonian, made twenty six appearances- with two goals- during his pandemic hit first season, another eight during his pandemic-hit second season, and forty eight- with a very impressive eight goals- during 21-22.
