Jason Thomas Hicks is a footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for NRFL Division 1 side Albany United.
Hicks signed with Wellington Phoenix on a short-term injury replacement contract.[2] However, his performances in the 2 league games he played in were impressive enough to land him a 2-year contract with the club.[3] Hicks scored his first goal for the Phoenix in a 3–2 victory over the Newcastle Jets on 9 February 2014.[4]
Hicks was called into the All Whites squad for a 30 May friendly in Auckland against South Africa by interim coach Neil Emblen. Hicks made his international debut on 30 May 2014 against South Africa, coming on as a substitute. The match ended in a nil-all draw.
On 19 November 2015, National Premier Leagues Victoria side South Melbourne FC confirmed that Hicks had joined the club for the 2016 Football Federation Victoria season.[5] Upon signing for the club, Hicks stated his ambition was to "win the league with South".[6] He was released by South Melbourne on 14 February 2016, prior to the beginning of the league season and prior to making a single appearance with the club.[7]
On 13 February 2016, Jason Hicks signed with National Premier Leagues Victoria side Melbourne Knights FC.[8] Hicks made his non-competitive debut for Melbourne Knights in a 3–2 loss to Sydney United 58 FC in the annual Friendship Cup fixture, that year contested at Sydney United Sports Centre in New South Wales.[9] Hicks then made his official debut for the Knights in Round 1 of the NPL Victoria season, a 1–1 draw against Green Gully SC at Knights Stadium.[10] The midfielder got his first assist in Red, White and Blue in Round 3, when he set up fellow midfielder James McGarry for the opening goal in a 2–1 win over Northcote City FC in Round 3.[11] On 19 March 2016, Hicks scored a hat-trick in a 7–0 win over Eltham Redbacks FC in Round 4 of the 2016 FFA Cup.[12] Just six days later, Hicks was again the hero as he scored the lone goal in Melbourne's 1–0 victory over FC Bulleen Lions in the NPL Victoria.[13] In Round 10, Jason Hicks scored a 90th-minute winner against Melbourne Victory FC Youth.[14]
In February 2016, Hicks joined Melbourne Knights.[15] He was released by them in October 2017.[16]
In 2020, Hicks played for Albany United.[17] [18] [19] In 2021, he played for West Coast Rangers.[20]
