Chance Ethan Ryan Carter (born September 15, 2001) is a Canadian soccer player who plays for Edmonton Scottish in League1 Alberta.

Early life

Born in Canada, is of Jamaican and Guyanese descent through his parents.[1] Carter played youth soccer with the Edmonton Drillers, followed by the FC Edmonton Academy, before joining the Vancouver Whitecaps Academy in early 2017.[2] [3] He signed with the Whitecaps' developmental squad in June 2018 and attended pre-season camp with the first team in 2018 and 2019.[4] He then departed the Whitecaps in the fall of 2019 and returned to Edmonton.[5]

University career

In 2021, Carter began playing for the men's soccer team at MacEwan University, where he was already enrolled as a student.[6] [7] He helped the team achieve their first Canada West playoff berth in his first season, however, he spent the majority of 2022 dealing with an injury that limited his playing time.[8]

Club career

In February 2020, Carter signed a professional contract with FC Edmonton of the Canadian Premier League.[9] [10] In his first professional season, he made six appearances, including one start, in the COVID-19 abbreviated season.[11] In November 2020, the club picked up the option on his contract for the 2021 season.[12] [13] However, in June 2021, ahead of the start of the 2021 season, he announced his retirement from the professional game, to pursue other career aspirations, as he was attending university for dentistry.[14] [15]

In 2024, he played at the semi-professional level with Edmonton Scottish in League1 Alberta.[16]
