Player Profile:

A product of Dartford’s academy, attacker Louie played a big part in the success of the Darts’ Under-19 side. He also featured in the first-team squad - he came off from the bench as the Darts defeated Folkestone Invicta 6-2 at Chatham Town to win the Kent Senior Cup on 17.5.22.

Louie went on loan to Holmesdale of the SCEFL in 2022-23 and, early in 2023-24, spent time at league rivals Lordswood.

He first joined Margate in March 2024 when he signed on dual registration from Dartford. His Margate debut was as a second half sub for Steve Cawley in a 1-1 Isthmian League draw at home to Cray Wanderers on 1.4.24.

Louie returned to Hartsdown in 2024-25 and made his second debut as a sub in a 5-0 FA Trophy win at Hanworth Villa on 7.9.24. In Margate’s next match – an Isthmian League game at home to Deal on 10.9.24 - he came on in the 76th minute and scored an injury time winner in a 2-1 victory.
