FOOTBALL

In school Nathan used to enjoy playing football and made some professional inroads as a teen, playing for non-league football teams such as Enfield FC, Waltham Forest and Potters Bar.

 

His football career began to blossom and at the age of 21 he signed his first professional football contract at League One team, Yeovil Town FC. After three fantastic years at Yeovil, Nathan was sought after by Chesterfield FC and signed to play for them in 2012 where he went on to win the St Johnstones Paint Trophy, earning the title of ‘Man Of The Match’, playing on the renowned turf of Wembley Stadium. His football career continued to go from strength to strength, it was during his first season at Chesterfield FC that Nathan was called up to play for Jamaica's national football team.


 

He took great pride in representing Jamaica and playing in their national squad. In 2012-2013 Nathan was named ‘Player of the Season’ for Chesterfield FC; the following season became a league title winner. After a successful run at Chesterfield, Yeovil Town were keen to sign Nathan again so he then returned to Yeovil Town FC, representing them for another four years. He even went on to become the highest appearance holder in the football league for Yeovil Town FC!

​

Nathan played for Yeovil for a total of seven years and during that time his opponents included Premier League teams Manchester United and Everton. Nathan man-marked the likes of Lukaku, Sanchez, Rashford, and other top football stars.

In 2020 Nathan had a short stint at Braintree FC but when the Covid-19 Pandemic hit the world in March 2020, football was stopped around the world and Nathan was without a team for about a year.
