Cursons spent his early career in non-league with Metropolitan Police, spending time on loan at Badshot Lea.[5][6][7]
After time with Walton & Hersham, he joined Hartley Wintney in December 2021.[8]
He joined Gainsborough Trinity in January 2022,[9][10] moving to Long Eaton United in November 2022.[11][12] He moved to Barwell in August 2023.[5]
After joining Ilkeston Town, he signed a new contract with the club in February 2024.[13] Following rich goalscoring form across both seasons,[14] which saw 12 goals in 18 games in 2023–24,[15] and 25 goals in 31 games in 2024–25,[16] in September 2024 Ilkeston rejected an offer for Cursons from an unnamed club.[17] He also captained the football team of Nottingham Trent University.[18]
In January 2025, after reportedly attracting attention from a number of Football League teams,[19][20][21] Cursons signed for Harrogate Town,[22][23] turning professional with the club.[24]
In January 2026 he was sold to Boston United.[25]
