Seth Owens (born 11 November 1998) is an English semi-professional footballer who plays as a defender. He is a product of the Brentford academy and began his professional career with AFC Wimbledon in 2016. After his release in 2018, Owens dropped into non-League football.
Brentford
Adept at left back or centre back, Owens began his career with Wingate & Finchley, before joining the academy at Brentford and signing a scholarship deal at the end of the 2013–14 season.[3][4] He made 43 appearances and scored four goals for the youth team and had a one-month work experience loan at Hayes & Yeading United prior to his release in January 2016.[3][5][6][7][8]
AFC Wimbledon
Owens joined the Development Squad at League One club AFC Wimbledon on trial during the 2016–17 pre-season and impressed enough to sign his first professional contract on 9 August 2016.[1][3] He won his maiden call into the first team squad two months later, for a league match versus Bury on 18 October 2016 and remained an unused substitute during the 2–1 victory.[2] He made his debut with a start in a 2–0 EFL Trophy group stage loss against Newport County on 8 November 2016 and made his league debut versus Bury on 19 November, playing the full 90 minutes of the 5–1 victory.[9] He finished the 2016–17 season with six appearances and was nominated for the club's Young Player of the Year award.[9][10]
Early in the 2017–18 season, Owens joined National League South club Whitehawk on loan.[11] He made his only appearance for the club with a start in a 1–0 defeat to Concord Rangers on 19 August 2017.[12] Owens' loan was terminated after he sustained a knee injury in training in the days leading up to the Hawks' match with Braintree Town on 26 August.[13] The injury ruled Owens out for the majority of the 2017–18 season.[13] He returned to match play with the Development Squad in mid-April 2018 and was released at the end of the 2017–18 season.[14][15]
Non-League football
Prior to the beginning of the 2018–19 season, Owens dropped into non-League football to join Isthmian League North Division club Maldon & Tiptree.[16] After seven appearances, he transferred to Southern League Premier Division South club Staines Town.[17] After just two appearances for Staines Town,[18] Owens moved across the division to Farnborough in late-December 2018.[17] He played through until January 2022,[19] when he joined Isthmian League Premier Division club Leatherhead on dual-registration terms.[20][21] He ended the 2021–22 season with Combined Counties League Premier Division North club Burnham.[22] In September 2022, Owens transferred to Isthmian League South Central Division club South Park.[23] He made five appearances and did not appear past 14 November 2022.[24] On 3 August 2024, Owens made an appearance for Essex Senior League club Saffron Walden Town.[25]
