Bradford (Park Avenue) AFC are pleased to confirm the signing of goalkeeper Jake Oram, who joins the club on loan until the end of the 2025/26 season.
The 19-year-old arrives with valuable non-league experience already under his belt, having spent time out on loan with both Hallam and Matlock Town across this season. Jake also gained further senior minutes during the 2024/25 campaign with Liversedge, continuing his development in competitive first-team environments.
Highly recommended by those he has worked with, Jake is regarded as a composed and reliable presence between the posts, showing maturity beyond his years and a strong work ethic. His experience across multiple clubs at step level has helped prepare him well for the demands of senior football.
First Team Manager Craig Elliott said:
“Delighted to sign Jake, he has really good experience from playing for numerous teams in this league. He’s highly regarded at Doncaster Rovers so I’m grateful for their help. We now have two excellent young goalkeepers that will only improve us.”
Goalkeeper coach Karlos Leneghan also had this to say:
“As a management team, we are constantly looking to strengthen the squad to give us the best possible chance of continuing our promotion push. Jake offers us both resilience and experience at this level and will play a pivotal part in our efforts to achieve a successful season.”
The move adds further depth and competition to the goalkeeping department as the Avenue continue to strengthen their squad for the remainder of the campaign.
Everyone at Bradford (Park Avenue) would like to welcome Jake to the club and wish him every success during his time at the Horsfall Community Stadium.
