**Last statistical update: 20:45, 21 January 2024 (UTC)**

**Luke May-Parrott** is a footballer who plays for **Hashtag United** (men).

Parrott initially turned out for Woodford Town's reserves in 2019–20, debuting on 21 September 2019 with a brace in a victory at home to Ilford. He eventually notched a tally of 7 goals for the eventually curtailed (due to the COVID-19 pandemic) campaign, having struck in fixtures with Takeley, Frenford, Redbridge, Witham Town and Sawbridgeworth Town. Parrott would subsequently be promoted into the Essex Senior League senior squad in 2020–21. He opened his account with a double in an opening day FA Cup extra preliminary round triumph at home to London Colney on 31 August 2020, while his 1st league goal came in a 29 September loss at St. Margaretsbury. That season was again affected by the pandemic, as he himself amassed 7 appearances.

2021–22 would see normality resume and Parrott almost exclusively, aside from a few games and goals for the under-23s, appear for the senior team of *The Woods*. 18 matches and 5 goals would come the forward's way in that aforementioned campaign, as he struck in encounters with Athletic Newham (brace), Takeley, Stanway Rovers and Clapton; all of which arrived from early February onwards, having had an extended amount of time out of the team earlier in the season. Parrott would hit double figures in a season for Woodford for the 1st time, as he popped up with 25 goals in 43 fixtures. Goals 1 and 2 of that run came in September 2022 on home turf to Redbridge and Stanway Rovers. October would see 5 goals against Romford, Sawbridgeworth Town (brace), Stanway Rovers and Saffron Walden Town.

Parrott scored goals in matches with Clapton, Southend Manor (brace), Stanway Rovers and Stansted to conclude 2022 as he took his 2022–23 tally to 12. The forward added to that with consecutive January 2023 strikes versus Clacton and White Ensign, which preceded further celebrations across February and March against Saffron Walden Town (back-to-back across league and cup), Stanway Rovers, Buckhurst Hill, West Essex and Halstead Town. Parrott concluded his season with 1 goal on 1 April versus Ilford and 4 goals in a 12 April success over Enfield. In the subsequent off-season, the forward "received many offers" but chose to stay with *The Woods*. 2023–24 would then kick start with 9 goals in 5 August matches, notably notching a hat-trick past Bowers & Pitsea in the FA Cup preliminary round replay on 23 August 2023.

His goalscoring form to begin 2023–24 continued into September 2023, as Parrott netted braces over West Essex and Ilford either side of a singular strike away to Halstead Town. Another double arrived to end October versus Clacton at home, having previously scored in wins on the road to Sporting Bengal United and Dunstable Town. November, however, would bring zero goals as he was sent off for the 1st time on 8 November in what turned out to be his penultimate game for *The Woods* - an away defeat to Romford. By the month's end, Parrott had departed to HTU.

2023–24
On 25 November 2023, Parrott was announced as a new signing by Isthmian League - Premier Division outfit HTU. A 1–1 league draw at Cheshunt followed hours later as the forward made his debut off the substitute's bench; replacing Misha Djemaili on 76 minutes. After further sub showings against Canvey Island and Braintree Town (cup), Parrott scored his 1st HTU goal off the bench on 16 December as they won 1–0 in the league versus Cray Wanderers on home turf. 2 days later, the forward netted a hat-trick in a 7–2 success in the Velocity Sports Trophy 4th round against Brightlingsea Regent.
