The 17-year-old joins The Nash from Welsh side TNS.

Connolly started his football journey at Connah’s Quay Nomads Youth before joining The New Saint Reserves (TNS) in February 2025.

Following the signing, Assistant Head Coach Jack Salked commented:

We saw him trialling for the reserves and he caught our eye, we’ve given him the opportunity to join the first team and also given another young player a pathway to the men’s team – we look forward to seeing him progress.

Welcome, Ben
