Jack Belton joined the Addicks at U9 level and was confirmed as a scholar ahead of the 2024/25 season.
This came off the back of an impressive campaign for the U16s, who he captained to victory in the Premier League Professional Development League Cup.
The industrious midfielder scored a penalty in the shootout that decided the final, and later won the 2024 Steve Clarke Trophy for his outstanding progress at U16 level.
