HARRY
COTTAM

Machynlleth-native Harry progressed through the Black and Greens' youth ranks and was a standout performer, and later skipper, for the Under-19s; during which time he formed a formidable partnership with Lee Jenkins, who has since ascended to the English Football League.

Harry later began his senior career with his hometown club, Machynlleth FC, before making the step up to the JD Cymru North with Caersws FC ahead of the 2022/23 season.

During his time with the Bluebirds, he has established himself as one of the division's most consistent and respected defenders. His performances earned both the Players' Player of the Season and Supporters' Player of the Season awards in his debut campaign, underlining the impact he made both on and off the pitch.

Harry’s leadership qualities were recognised when he was appointed club captain ahead of the 2024/25 season. He went on to lead Caersws to their first Montgomeryshire Cup triumph in 23 years, producing a Man of the Match performance in the final to cap a memorable campaign for the club.

His impressive form continued through the 2025/26 season as he was named Coaches' Player of the Season after another outstanding year at the heart of the defence. His performances also earned regional recognition, being selected to represent the JD Cymru North in the UEFA Regions' Cup at the conclusion of the season.

Still only entering the prime years of his career, Harry returns to Aberystwyth University Park Avenue having amassed more than 160 appearances in all competitions for Caersws FC.
