Goalkeeper Brandon Bache and centre-back Sam Walton will stay with Hinckley AFC for the new 2023/24 season.
The duo played key roles in the run of six consecutive clean sheets towards the end of the season and the run of 11 straight wins that led to the play-offs.
Goalkeeper Bache played 43 times in his first season with the club, keeping 14 clean sheets including in the League Cup final win, where he made two particularly smart saves.
Meanwhile, Walton joined in December and played 19 times between then and the end of the season. He captained the side in the absence of regular skipper Lewis Rankin while his solitary goal came in the big win over AFC Bridgnorth.

Brandon and Sam are the first players to be retained for the new season, with more to follow ahead of Saturday’s pre-season opener at Heather St John’s.
