Jenks Joins Carlisle United

A National League South title winner with the Reds, the Englishman leaves having made 45 appearances across all competitions and scoring 16 times since arriving in West Sussex last September.

The former Brighton & Hove Albion academy talent made his debut for the Reds in the Emirates FA Cup Second Round Qualifying Reply against Jersey Bulls before opening his account for the club against former side Forest Green two rounds later.

Finding his feet under the stewardship of Adam Hinshelwood, Jenks progressively improved as the season grew on, cropping up with several important moments as the Reds were named Champions in April.

A brace in our final match of 2025 against Dorking Wanderers catapulted the Rebels into top spot, with his goalscoring form continuing into the New Year.

March was a particularly prolific month for the 24-year-old, with two goals in the win over AFC Totton and a headed equaliser against Enfield Town helping him collect the Enterprise National League South Player of the Month award for March 2026.

Jenks made the attacking midfield position his own as the Rebels finished the season strong to earn promotion into the fifth tier.

Naturally, after a strong start to the National League campaign on an individual front, including netting a header in our opening home match against Forest Green Rovers and supplying a pair of assists in Friday’s encounter with Tamworth, the midfielder has been the subject of interest, with Carlisle United securing his services on a permanent basis.

Everyone at Worthing FC wishes Ted every success in his next venture and wish to express our gratitude for his efforts while at the Sussex Transport Community Stadium.
