The 25-year-old former Stourbridge and Solihull Moors flyer impressed with the Lambs last season.

Lait, who played in the National League with the Moors two seasons ago, won three awards at Tamworth's recent end of season awards.

He becomes Gavin Cowan's first new signing of the summer, after nine of last season's squad already agreed terms for next season.

Lait top scored for Tamworth with 21 goals from wide areas last season.

Cowan said: “We’re delighted to have signed Chris for the forthcoming season.

"He has pace, power and can play in numerous attacking positions that will give us plenty of options in the attacking phase of our play. He’s hungry and ready to achieve at this level after a brilliant return last season."
