Five players have committed their future to Lowestoft Town ahead of the club's return to the Ryman League, including skipper Rossi Jarvis.

The experienced midfielder, formerly of Luton Town and Cambridge United, spent much of last season playing in central defence but couldn't prevent the Blues from slipping to relegation from National League North.

Jarvis is joined by fellow former Norwich City academy players Andrew Fisk and Adam Smith, as well as winger Chris Henderson and striker Shaun Bammant, in agreeing to play in the Ryman Premier for the Trawlerboys next season.

'This time of the year is always a very busy period for managers and involves lots of hard work,' Lowestoft boss Ady Gallagher told his club's website.

'So I'm delighted to have these lads agree new deals with the club and continue to form part of my squad.'
