Troon winger Lewis Lovering has today joined SPFL League Two side Clyde on a permanent transfer.
The 26 year old winger began his career with his local side Pollok United, before he joined Drumchapel United for a season. He first joined his family’s club of Benburb in 2017, but a two year spell with Neilston followed before a brief spell in the SPFL with Albion Rovers.
Lewis was previously best known for a 4 year spell back at Benburb, where he played under the tutelage of his father Paul, and he really made his mark on the WOSFL from wide left. His direct running, aggression & ability in the air made him a standout in the top flight and two Player of the Season awards made him hot property when he decided to leave New Tinto Park in 2024, and he chose a move to Champions Beith.
Lewis moved to Portland Park last June, and he proved to be a man for the big occasion as he finished his maiden season as the club’s top goal scorer with 15 goals in 38 appearances and a record 3rd place finish in the WOSFL Premier Division, leading us to promotion at the end of last season. Lewis was also a vital member of the side that lifted the WOSFL Cup on that amazing day in May!
Lewis had intimated at the end of last season he was interested in pursuing two offers in the SPFL, but if they did not materialise he wanted to stay at Portland Park. He makes the step-up with everyone’s best wishes, and we hope he’ll smash it at New Douglas Park.
Everyone at the club would like to wish Lewis & all of his family the very best for the future!
