NOAH Rubio continues to impress across the club after signing a professional contract in the summer.
Noah is the latest graduate from the Harriers Academy as a proven and consistent player pathway to the first team continues to deliver.
Reflecting on his progress as a part of the Harriers family, Academy Coach Harry Butler, who has worked closely with the youngster, said: “When he first came in, within the first couple of sessions we knew we had a player on our hands.
“He’s gone from strength to strength… he’s always had the ability that she’s been showcasing, but our job was to provide a home for him, and a confidence to show those skills and show the first team what he can do.”
The Harriers first team has been boosted considerably over the last decade with talent from its own ranks.
Talented players in positions all over the pitch have made the step from Academy to the senior men’s side, those opportunities being a big pull for players making their way to Worcestershire.
Speaking in a piece on the club’s YouTube channel, Noah, who made his first team debut at the end of last season, said: “You’re given opportunities often and you’re definitely pushed.
“You’re out there and everyone looks out for you, including the players and staff.”
Samson Hewett is now in his second season as a first team player having penned terms last season and also made his first team debut.
The attitude and professionalism of the squad’s youngsters is huge plus, according to Manager Phil Brown, who added: “It’s about mentality and attitude and, if they maintain the attitude that they’re showing at the moment, they’ve got a great chance of having a career.”
