The shot-stopper put pen to paper after trialling with us during last pre-season and went on to make 21 appearances in Poole Town colours.

Taylor came up through the academies of MK Dons and Cambridge United before going on to play for the likes of North Leigh, Gloucester City and Oxford United.

The goalkeeper was also part of a Banbury squad that lifted the Southern Premier Division Central title in the 2021/22 campaign.

Taylor played a prominent role in the second half of last season and made some vital match-winning saves to help maintain our position in the Southern Premier Division South.

Joint-manager Pat Suraci said: “We’re really pleased that Ben has agreed to remain with us next season, his attitude and mentality is exactly what we want in our players.”

He added: “He really showed his ability as a goalkeeper too when given the opportunity last season in what was a difficult time, so we are really pleased to keep him for the next campaign.”
