Kevin Welsh (born 2 September 1984) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a left back.
Welsh played for St Johnstone as a youth but suffered an injury and dropped into amateur football.[1] He moved from amateur side Harestanes to Hamilton Academical of the Scottish Premier League in the summer of 2009, and made his professional debut for Hamilton on 29 August 2009, in a 1–4 loss against Rangers in which he was substituted at half time for David Louhoungou.[2]
He was loaned out to Alloa Athletic for three months on 11 September 2009,[3] making three appearances in the Scottish Football League Second Division.
Welsh was released from his contract with Hamilton Academical on 14 January 2010.[4] He went back into the amateur game and Harestanes, where he won the 2014–15 Scottish Amateur Cup, the first to offer a place in the Scottish Cup. He said that playing in the tournament with his friends meant more than playing against Rangers at Ibrox.[1]
