DORCHESTER Town have announced the arrival of goalkeeper Chad Collins to the Avenue Stadium. 

Collins, 23, moves to the Magpies after fellow stopper Matt Cafer agreed a switch to Farnborough having only been at the club for one week. 

A former AFC Bournemouth academy product, Collins provides incumbent number one Chris Weale with competition for a starting berth. 

Collins has also had stints at Poole Town, Blackfield & Langley and Wimborne Town.

Most recently the keeper enjoyed a spell at New Orleans Jesters, who play in the United States' National Premier Soccer League - the fourth tier of US football. 

Collins is set to feature in boss Steve Thompson's matchday squad for the visit of Chesham United in the Evo-Stik Southern League Premier today (3pm).

Collins is the fourth new signing to move to the Magpies under Thompson after Ollie Taylor, Cafer and Aaron Rodriguez.
