Career

A product of the Cheltenham Town Youth System, Connolly made his way through the ranks at Whaddon Road, signing as a professional in the summer of 2004. He made his debut on 1 April 2005 in a 2–1 defeat to Boston United[1] and appeared a handful of times for the Robins in his first season, gradually making more appearances over the next two years. In 2007–2008, he appeared fifteen times in League One, mainly as a substitute.

After ending the 2007–2008 season, he was released by Cheltenham.[2] He spent time on trial at Newport County, but instead signed for Hednesford Town after impressing in their friendly with Rangers while on trial. However, he failed to settle at the side and left after making just two appearances, signing for Bath City.[3]

In July 2014, he signed for Gloucester City.
