Following his confirmation as Plymouth Argyle manager for the 2012-13 season, Carl Fletcher has completed his signing of the close season in the form of striker Paris Cowan-Hall.
The striker, 21, who was born in London, joins from Blue Square Bet South champions, Woking, for whom he scored 11 goals in 27 appearances during the 2011-12 campaign.
Prior to joining the Cards, Paris had started his career with Portsmouth, he had also had trials with Chelsea and Manchester United as a 16-year old, before appearing for Grimsby Town, Scunthorpe United and Rushden & Diamonds.
Due to his age, as he is under 24, Woking will be receiving an appropriate amount of compensation.
Paris joins a roster of strikers that currently includes experienced figures such as Nick Chadwick and Warren Feeney and the raw, young talents of Matt Lecointe and Jared Sims.
If Paris needs any inspiration on joining the Pilgrims, he need look no further than the number of players that Argyle have plucked from non-league football over the years who have gone on to enjoy fruitful careers in the game.
This list includes Tony Book, Paul Mariner, Dwight Marshall, Jamie Mackie and Craig Noone amongst others.
Also, Paris can also look at the impact two of his fellow ex-Portsmouth graduates have made in the lower leagues in recent seasons after being released by Pompey, such as Swindon's Matt Ritchie and Cheltenham Town's Marlon Pack.
