Balmer, a Northern Ireland Under-21 international, is the third player to leave the Ballymena Showgrounds for Larne following his former team-mates, Albert Watson and Johnny McMurray.

He had become an integral part of the Sky Blues squad under David Jeffrey in recent years and his departure would be a massive blow for the Showgrounds outfit.
