Playing Career

Paul started as a goalkeeper in junior football at age of 11 at the very successful Queensbury Celtic FC. 1 year later he was selected to play for the Bradford District FA team and played for 4 years during which time he was selected to be the 1st choice goalkeeper for the West Yorkshire representative team.
At the age of 14, Paul signed schoolboy forms for Bradford City and was a regular in their U19s youth team from the age of 15. He signed for Bradford City on a full time basis at the age of 16, under then manager Lennie Lawrence who was shortly after succeeded by Chris Kamara. During this time Paul played with the likes of Jonathan Gould (former Celtic/Scotland, Steve Harper (Newcastle Utd) and Mark Schwarzer (Middlesboro/Fulham/Australia) and was coached for 2 years by Pete Williams (Goalkeeping coach at several Premier League/Serie A clubs)and Martin Hunter (FA National Coach).
After leaving Bradford City, Paul had a spell at Bradford Park Avenue before joining Brighouse Town where he stayed for 10+ years.

Coaching.

Paul began coaching full time in 1998 for 2 years following his departure from Bradford City,in schools and junior clubs as well as being responsible for running highly successful after school evening and school holiday courses in both West and North Yorkshire, with weekly sessons taking him as far as Settle, Ingleton and Hawes.
Having grown frustrated at seeing junior (and senior !!) goalkeepers turning up to training sessions at their clubs and just having balls blasted at them for an hour, Paul decided to start Paul Brown Goalkeeper Coaching and give goalkeepers of all ages the opportunity to fulfil their potential and learn the technical,mental and tactical skills required to be a top goalkeeper.
Paul is goalkeeper coach at Brighouse Town and runs his successful Goalkeeper Development Centre on Monday nights. He is also currently Goalkeeper Coach at Campion Juniors, Brighouse Town FC, Huddersfield New College, Rastrick Juniors, Shelf Juniors and Bradford District U17's. He currently coaches approx 25 GK's per week in various sessions.
He is an FA Licensed Coach and member of and The Association of Football Coaches.
