Former Worthing Football Club defender Corey Heath has agreed to join local rivals Bognor Regis.

Heath, 21, who announced he would not be signing a new contract at Woodside Road last month, has decided to join the Rocks, who were promoted into National South last season.

The centre-back came through the ranks at Nyewood Lane and has now agreed on a return to the club he represented at youth team level.

Heath helped Worthing win the Ryman League South Division play-offs in 2015/16 and they finished 14th in the Premier Division last season.

He will now play at a higher standard again next season, after Rocks gained promotion into National South through the Ryman League Premier Division play-offs.
