Troy Jules (born 26 June 2000) is an association footballer who last played for Liga Dominicana de Fútbol club Atlético Vega Real and the Dominica national team.
In 2016 Jules was one of three Antiguans invited to travel to Jamaica to participate in the Digicel Kickstart Academy.[1] He played for John Hughes SC of the First Division in 2019. Following the season, he was given the league's Best Young Player Award.[2] The following season, he moved to Pigotts Bullets of the Antigua and Barbuda Premier Division. Later in 2020 he was invited to a three-month trial in the United Kingdom with Ceda Football Academy with the possibility of joining Bradford AFC.[3][4] By October 2021 Jules had joined Tooting Bec of England's Southern Counties East Football League.[5] He made six league appearances that season, scoring four goals. He made an additional appearance in the Gordon Worsfold Senior Cup in which he scored a brace in a 6–1 Second Round victory over Junction Elite FC.[6]
In summer 2021, it was announced that Jules and fellow-Antiguan Amali Colbourne would join South Bend Lions FC of the USL League Two in the United States for the 2022 season following a successful trial. The trial opportunity arose following an extended training period and impressive combine performances in the United Kingdom in 2019. Because the duo could not fly to Indiana because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the trial took place at the facilities of Kettering Town in August 2021.[7][8] Despite the move being announced, neither player joined the club's roster that season.[9][10]
By 2023 Hughes had returned to Antigua and former club John Hughes SC. He scored a hat trick in the promotion/relegation playoffs to help the club secure promotion back to the Premier Division.[11][12] In July of that year it was announced that Jules had signed a two-year contract with Mount Pleasant FA of the Jamaican Premier League.[13][14] At the time, the club was the ranked third in the Caribbean and best in Jamaica according to CONCACAF ratings.[15]
In March 2024, Jules joined Norwegian Fourth Division club Trønder-Lyn IL on a two-year contract.[16][17]
