Welcome to Cobh Ramblers Sam Bellis

Welcome to Cobh Ramblers, Sam Bellis! ⚽

We’re thrilled to announce the signing of 21-year-old centre-forward Sam Bellis, who joins us ahead of the 2025 season!

Sam’s football journey began at the Manchester City FC Academy, before he moved south to hone his skills at Southampton FC. Over four years, he made 49 appearances across their U18, U21, and B teams, scoring 14 goals.

In 2023, Sam made a permanent move to Barrow AFC in EFL League Two before gaining valuable experience on loan at Kidderminster Harriers FC during the 2023/24 season. ⚽

Last July, he joined Waterford, where he competed in the League of Ireland for the latter half of the 2024, campaign. He would go on to play 9 times for the blues, scoring a memorable goal in September at the RSC helping his team to a 2-1 win over Dundalk.

Following the signing, Cobh Ramblers manager Michael McDermott shared his excitement:“I spent a lot of time researching and watching Sam: he comes from a great pedigree in terms of his youth development and at 21 has a lot to prove. I am delighted that we have brought him to Cobh. As a forward, he can play in multiple positions and gives us great flexibility in attacking areas.”

Sam himself is eager to get started: “Really looking forward to playing in front of the fans at St. Colman’s Park. I’m excited for the season ahead and being part of a strong squad. Hopefully we all make it a season to remember.”

With our 2025 campaign kicking off in just four weeks – Valentine’s Day Friday – away to Treaty FC, the squad will use this time to gel and sharpen up during pre-season. Stay tuned for updates on friendly fixtures to come!
