New Year return for loan midfielder

Kidderminster Harriers midfielder James Dance could start for Rushall Olympic on New Year’s Day at Stafford Rangers after returning to the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League on a month’s loan.

The 26-year-old kicked off his career at Dales Lane before moving on to Kettering, Crawley Town and Luton Town. From the West Sussex club he later joined Luton Town and was also on loan at Nuneaton Town before signing for the Conference Premier's Harriers in June 2013.

Dance, pictured shaking hands with the Premier Division club's Vice-Chairman Nick Allen while General Manager Terry Brumpton and Chairman John Allen look on, has made five appearances for the Harriers this season with another eight as substitute and has scored three times.

The delighted Pics believe manager Neil Kitching has signalled his intentions for the second half of the season with the midfielder’s signing on Monday and a spokesman said: "We welcome James to Dales Lane and trust he enjoys his stay with us."
