Player Profile:

Tall striker born in Derby. Elliott started his career as a teenager with Graham Street Prims of the East Midlands Counties League and moved to Heanor Town of the Midland League. There, he was a prolific scorer and was signed by league rivals Ilkeston Town in 2018.

He scored 36 goals, picking up several end of season awards, as the Robins secured the Midland League Premier Division title in the 2018-19 season.

Elliott then moved to Kent to be a pharmaceutical development undergraduate at Pfizer and signed for Margate in 2019-20.

On joining the club, he told the website: "I moved from Ilkeston Town where I was at last season. I moved here for work commitments and as a consequence had to find a new team. Margate seemed like a perfect location and standard for me to progress and, after speaking to Jay [Saunders] a couple of weeks before I moved down, I was sure I wanted to play here."

He scored on his debut in a 2-1 win in an FA Cup tie at Horsham YMCA on 7.9.19. Elliott became a regular in the starting XI and scored in three consecutive games between 29.10.19 and 5.11.19. He scored twice in a 2-2 draw at home to Potters Bar on 23.11.19.

Elliott grabbed a hat-trick in a 5-1 win at home to Carshalton in the Isthmian League Cup on 7.1.20. By the time the campaign was curtailed early because of Covid, he had made 28 appearances, plus seven as sub, and scored 13 goals.

He returned to the Midlands in the summer of 2020. Manager Jay Saunders said: "Losing Elliott is another big blow as he was a brilliant lad and he is gutted that he can't stay with us because of work commitments." He signed for National League North side Alfreton Town.

Elliott spent 2022-23 with Mickleover of the Southern Premier League Central. In 2023-24, he was playing for Flint Town United of the Cymru North League.
