Worthing have signed Southend United forward Charley Kendall for an undisclosed fee.
The 25-year-old has been at the Shrimpers since late 2024 where he played 55 National League games, scoring 13 goals.
He played a key role in Southend's FA Trophy triumph last season, scoring twice in the semi-final before playing in the final where they beat Wealdstone in a penalty shootout.
"Charley is a real threat with his pace in behind and has that all-important National League experience which we want to keep adding to the group," manager Adam Hinshelwood told the club website.
"His goal record speaks for itself and everyone is excited to have him through the door and see him represent our club."

Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler says there is a chance either Georginio Rutter or Jack Hinshelwood could return to the squad for Sunday's clash with Chelsea, although he admitted the latter is less likely to be ready.
Both players have been nursing injuries, but Hurzeler is hopeful Rutter can make the squad.
"With both, we will have to be patient," Hurzeler said. "There might be a chance for one of them to be in the squad [against Chelsea].
"With Gini, I see a higher chance. With Hinshelwood, for the weekend it might be too close, but we will find good solutions."
Hurzeler was also asked about Yankuba Minteh's future amid speculation over a possible move away from the club, with Liverpool keen.

A summer of change off the pitch for Aston Villa was followed by one of the worst opening 45 minutes of a season in Premier League history as Unai Emery's side collapsed at Brighton.
Last season's Europa League winners went into the new campaign having lost four of the players that started their 3-0 win over Freiburg in May. Morgan Rogers, Youri Tielemans, Lucas Digne and Ezri Konsa's exits could also soon be followed by two more first-team stars in Ollie Watkins and Emi Martinez, who were both left out of Villa's matchday squad at Brighton.
A new-look Villa went behind inside eight minutes in calamitous fashion as Victor Lindelof bundled into his own net before Brighton's Maxim De Cuyper doubled their advantage. Jack Hinshelwood then scored twice in two minutes before Villa's Joao Gomes, a £38m signing from Wolves, was sent off on his first Premier League appearance for his new club.
Hinshelwood's first goal was followed by another straight from kick-off. Gomes was caught in possession on the edge of his own box before Hinshelwood finished into an empty net for his second - just 80 seconds after his first.
It then went from bad to worse for debutant Gomes, who was earlier booked for waving an imaginary yellow card towards Pascal Gross, as he received a straight red card for kicking out at Georginio Rutter.

What's going on on the island? After Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, two of the favorites, already took a fully deserved beating, the next underdog is frustrating the supposedly stronger team on paper.
And "frustrating" is really an understatement. Brighton & Hove Albion were already 4-0 up after just 30 minutes against the reigning Europa League winners and last season's fourth-placed side, Aston Villa.
Fabian Hürzeler's Seagulls were ruthless. After an early own goal by Lindelöf, De Cuyper added another in the 18th minute. Homegrown talent Hinshelwood then piled on two more with a quickfire brace after half an hour.
As if that wasn't already bitter enough, the team from Birmingham then reduced themselves to ten men. João Gomes was shown a red card for violent conduct.
After Unai Emery's side recently put in a good showing against PSG in the Super Cup, this is a massive blow to start the season. Perhaps the departures of three key starters — Youri Tielemans (move to Man United), Lucas Digne (move to PSG), and Morgan Rogers (move to Chelsea) — will be felt more than initially thought after all.

Worthing have signed winger Dom Hutchinson from fellow National League side Wealdstone.
The 24-year-old joins the newly promoted side on a free transfer after failing to agree fresh terms with the Stones.
"Dom had a great season last year and has played lots of games at National League level," said Worthing manager Adam Hinshelwood .
"He is an exciting player that can play or both flanks and at wing-back. This sort of versatility will be vital for us to be successful."
The length of Hutchinson's contract is undisclosed.
