Manager Adam Hinshelwood has secured the services of a former teammate, who spent last season helping Dartford to fourth place in National League South, Worthing's official website reported today.
Robinson, 35, started his career at Brighton & Hove Albion and roomed with his new boss when he travelled to Middlesbrough with the first team squad for the first time as a 16-year-old. He became Albion’s youngest ever scorer three weeks later in a cup match against Forest Green, a record he still holds to this day.

The front man becomes Hinshelwood’s first signing of the summer and he’s delighted to have got his man, finally, saying: "Jake is a player I have been after for a while, a natural goalscorer who will be a great role model for our younger forwards at the club."
Worthing are planning for their first National South season after running away with the Isthmian premier title in the season just ended.
