Midfielder Dan Hawkins (pictured) joins from league rivals Consett AFC.

The 28-year-old signed for Consett in the summer of 2015, having spent the previous season with Blyth Spartans, then in the Northern Premier League Premier Division, helping them to the Third Round of the FA Cup.

An ex-Middlesbrough academy player, he had previously spent four years at Bishop Auckland, helping them to lift the Durham Challenge Cup in 2013.

He is no stranger to Seaham, however, having spent a month on loan in October 2019.

Left-sided defender Danny Sayer takes the well-worn path from league rivals Heaton Stannington to Seaham.

Sayer signed for Heaton Stannington during the 2017/18 season from Blyth AFC.

He made the left-back position his own at Grounsell Park.

Centre forward Jason Blackburn has also joined Seaham from Northallerton Town.

Blackburn signed for Northallerton in the summer of 2019.

He has previous Northern League experience with Hebburn Town and was originally part of the Carlisle United set-up.

Goalkeeper Andy Jennison arrives from Hebburn.

Jennison numbers Jarrow Roofing, Whitley Bay and Team Northumbria amongst his other previous clubs.
