THE New Saints have signed highly-rated wingman Craig Jones from rivals and Welsh Premier champions Rhyl.
The second signing of the close season for the Saints' management duo of Andy Cale and Mike Davies, Jones has just been voted into the Welsh Premier league's team of the season for 2008/9 and is also a Welsh semi-professional international who featured in last year's Four Nations tournament.
Jones, 22, first entered the top flight with Airbus UK when he signed from Cymru Alliance club Buckley Town in November 2004, moving to Aberystwyth Town in the summer of 2006.
After a full season with the Black & Greens, he was manager John Hulse's first signing of the 2007 close season for Rhyl.
Jones scored four goals from 21 appearances for the Lilywhites last season from a career total of 26 goals and 117 league starts.
"We are delighted to welcome Craig to Park Hall," says head coach Andy Cale.
"In Craig Jones and Craig Williams we now have two of the best wide players in the league to strengthen our renewed bid for the title next season."
