A talented attacking midfielder who joined the Pitmen from league rivals Newcastle Town in February 2024

​

Manchester-born but having represented Wales at youth level, Edwards joined Salford City as a youngster, signing a professional contract in the summer of 20129 but failed to make a first-team appearance before being released in February to join League of Wales side Airbus UK

​

However, soon after his switch across the border, the coronavirus pandemic brought the season to an immediate halt and also limited Edwards to a handful of appearances at the start of the 2020-2021 season before being brought to a halt once more

​

July 2021 saw Edwards make the move down the coast to Colwyn Bay, now established in the League of Wales set-up after making the move from English non-league football in 2019. He was used mainly as a substitute for Bay as they ended up finishing 6th in Cymru North. Edwards had departed the club by this point and had joined the newly-formed Rhyl 1879 in a short-term deal until the end of the season

​

A move to Cefn Druids was Edwards' next stop in September 2022, where he was a regular for the newly relegated Cymru North side with seventeen starts and three goals for the Ancients

​

Edwards returned to England for the first time in four years with a move to Newcastle Town in August 2023 but found starts hard to come by for the Stoke-based outfit with only nine appearances overall. Manager Paul Moore - the man who had signed Edwards in the summer for Newcastle - had now been appointed as Hednesford manager and elected to bring the midfielder to Keys Park in February 2024
