One of Dartford's trialists has earned himself a deal at Princes Park.
Luke Warner-Eley has played in all of the Darts' pre-season friendlies so far and now he's officially part of their squad for National League South.
He's likely to start the season at left-back with Mark Onyemah still recovering from knee surgery.
Warner-Eley began last season with Barton Rovers before joining Chesham United at Step 3.
He has also played for St Ives Town, Uxbridge, Royston Town and Leverstock Green.
Dartford joint-bosses Adam Flanagan and Jamie Coyle said: "We have been impressed with how Luke has performed in training and during games.
"He is hungry to prove himself at this level and we would like to give him this opportunity.
"We look forward to working with him this season."
Warner-Eley is the ninth player to join Dartford this summer after Mark Smith, Jordan Wynter, Josh Hill, Sam Blackman, Luke Allen, Luke Wanadio, Alex Flisher and Darren McQueen.
Darts host Leyton Orient on Saturday and Bromley on Tuesday.
