Jason Pearcey

While still only a 17 year old apprentice, Jason made his debut in the first team where he impressed that much, he was offered a professional contract. Jason stayed at Mansfield Town for nearly nine years and was an ever present part of their team, playing over 250 professional games and winning promotion twice!

Jason came close to signing for premiership team Everton FC, only for the club to claw him back from a loan deal at the last minute.

Jason eventually left Mansfield and signed for Grimsby Town FC, were he stayed for four years. While at Grimsby Town, he was part of a team that won 2 games in one month at Wembley Stadium. (The Auto Windscreens cup and Play offs)

In 1998 he then signed for Brentford and helped them win promotion in his first year!

Sadly Jason had to retire after nearly losing a leg in a freak accident playing against Wigan Athletic and now he puts all his efforts into helping other goalkeepers in his region.

Over his time as a professional goalkeeper, Jason was fortunate enough to have been taught by the following goalkeeper coaches. Eric Steele (Manchester United), Mike Kelly (England), Kevin Hitchcock (Chelsea), Mervyn Day (Leeds) and Bob Wilson(Arsenal).

And he also trained alongside fellow professional goalkeepers Mart Poom, Russell Holt, John Lukic, Hans Segers and the legend Neville Southall.

Jason’s qualifications are as follows:

FA Level 1
FA Level 2
FA Level 3

He is also in the middle of doing his UEFA B Goalkeeping badge.
