Hinckley AFC in Leicestershire signed two new players on 20 March 2026 to boost the squad for their final five games of the league season. Devonn O’Sullivan and Harrison Myring joined the local side to help improve the team’s performance before the campaign ends in mid-April.

Harrison Myring is a 24-year-old forward with experience at the Leicester City and Doncaster Rovers academies. He also played college football in the United States for the University of South Carolina, where the club states he was named the most valuable player among all universities.

Devonn O’Sullivan is an 18-year-old striker who developed through the club’s own youth team. He was the top scorer for that side last year when they won their division championship.

Both new signings made their debuts on 22 March 2026 in a 2-1 victory against Easington Sports. Myring entered the game as a substitute and set up the winning goal for his team.

The club was founded in 2014 as a supporter-owned community trust and currently competes in the United Counties League Premier Division South. Joint managers Ross Innes, Adam Davies, and Chris Tullin are looking to help the team move back into the top half of the table before the season concludes.
