Layton Campbell joined the Seasiders from Sunderland in the summer of 2023 as one of seven new scholars.

The forward had a positive first season for the Under-18's, scoring eight times and providing five assists across all competitions.  

Campbell grew into the campaign, leading the scoring charts for Neal Eardley's side after Christmas and he will be hoping to take that form into the 2024/25 season as a second-year scholar.
