Jenson Gracie, 10, of Newark, impressed with his performances in the Magpies shadow squad.

The midfielder was invited to join the squad after Notts County saw him playing for Fernwood Foxes Whites, where he twice won the league and cup double.

His father, Jason Gracie, said: “His attitude is great. He gets his head down and he responds well to every challenge that is thrown at him.

“Notts County’s Academy keeps going until the under-17s so hopefully he has a good few years ahead of him.”

Fernwood Foxes coaches Simon Haywood and Martin Chapman said they wished Jenson all the best for the future.

Jenson joined RHP Colts under-11s Sunday team at the start of the season before signing for Notts County.

Garry Attwood, the coach at RHP, said he was thrilled to see Jenson rewarded for his hard work.

“For a player so young he’s got an excellent attitude to football and life in general,” he said

Jenson has played three games for the academy side, scoring his first goal in a 6-2 win over Lincoln City.







It's a nice piece of news here, it would be something to look back on say in 10 years time and say "this is where it began". Hope he goes far, certainly sounds promising.

Nice read, not much there about him as a player but worthwhile still. Good luck young lad!
