Ramshaw follows Great Britain international Rohan Bhuhi to Holcombe from Southgate and those signings come off the back of the arrival of Felix Tully from Loughborough Students.

Ramshaw has been capped five times by England, while he has also played for both Great Britain and England's under-21 squads.

As well as previously playing for Southgate, Ramshaw has spent time with Hampstead & Westminster in the Premier Division and has Euro Hockey League experience from his time with the Paddington Recreational outfit.

Upon signing, Ramshaw said: "I can’t wait to get stuck in, it’s going to be a great opportunity for me to improve and also be part of team success, which is what we all play for!”

Head Coach and Director of Hockey Browne added: "Matt's remarkable goal-scoring performance in the Premier Division last season has set the stage for greater accomplishments.

"I am looking forward to working with him next season."
