Players from Dover Athletic, Ebbsfleet United and Welling United help England C to a 6-1 win in Bermuda
08:21, 05 June 2013
Preston Edwards was named England C captain for their 6-1 win over Bermuda on Tuesday night.
The goalkeeper, who is in contract talks with Ebbsfleet United, was one of four Kent-based players to get a taste of the action in Hamilton.
Welling United defenders Anthony Acheampong and Fraser Franks played the full 90 minutes at the National Stadium, while Dover Athletic keeper Mitch Walker replaced Edwards at half-time.
Franks had an effort cleared off the line in the first half and Forest Green Rovers striker James Norwood went on to net a hat-trick for the non-league representative side.
With Edwards turning 24 in September, he will no longer be eligible for England C selection, having become Paul Fairclough's first-choice goalkeeper over the last two years.
Attention now turns to his future in club football. New Ebbsfleet manager Steve Brown revealed on Monday he wanted to keep Edwards at Stonebridge Road and that talks were ongoing.
