Jack Patrick Broadhead (born 2 October 1994) is an English footballer who plays as a defender for Belper Town.

Playing career

Born in Mansfield, England, and growing up as a Liverpool supporter,[1] Broadhead began his career at Chesterfield, and was named as the club's Young Player of the Year in 2011–12.[2]

He made his first team debut at the Proact Stadium in the FA Cup on 3 November 2012, replacing Mark Randall 89 minutes into a 6–1 victory over Hartlepool United.[3] Later in the month he was offered his first senior contract at the club, which would secure him as a "Spireites" player until summer 2015; the team's youth coach, Dave Bentley, said that such a lengthy contract was "unheard of really for... a young player at this stage of the season".[4] [5]

On 17 August 2013 he signed for Northern Premier League side Buxton on a months loan.[6] On 11 September 2013 he extended his stay at Buxton until 17 November 2013.[7] After making sixteen appearances in all competitions, Broadhead returned to his parent club,[8] though the club's manager expressed Broadhead would one day make a return to Buxton.[9] Broadhead, himself, stated his loan spell at Buxton helped him progress.[10]

On 2 January 2014, Broadhead joined Evo-Stik NPL Premier Division side Worksop Town on loan for the second time this season until 1 February 2014.[11] Then on 26 March 2014, Broadhead joined Northern Premier League side Matlock Town on loan for the rest of the 2013–14 campaign.[12]

At the start of the 2014–15 season, Broadhead made his first Chesterfield start on 2 September 2014 in Chesterfield's 2–0 Football League Trophy First Round defeat at Scunthorpe United. He was sent-off in the 84th minute after receiving two yellow cards.[13] Following this, Broadhead re-joined Buxton for the second time on 4 October 2014.[14]

On 21 November 2014, Broadhead joined Frickley Athletic on a one-month loan.[15] Soon after, Broadhead's loan spell at Chesterfield was extended until 17 January 2015, as well as, addition of 24-hour clause.[16] On 17 May 2015, Broadhead was released by Chesterfield.[17] Following his release, Broadhead joined Mickleover Sports.

Broadhead joined Boston United on the transfer deadline day in March 2017.[18] In January 2018, he was loaned out to his former club Buxton for the rest of the season.[19]

Broadhead spent the 2018/19 season with A.F.C. Mansfield, before joining Grantham Town ahead of the 2019/20 season.[20] He left the club in February 2020 to join Pontefract Collieries.[21]

In June 2024, Broadhead joined Belper Town.[22]
