Cambrian United FC are proud to announce that Jackson Ingram has signed with Swansea City AFC, marking a historic milestone as he becomes the 98th player from Cambrian United to progress into the professional game.
A Journey That Started at 10 Years Old
Jackson first joined Cambrian United at the age of 10, making the move from his local club, Penydarren Boys & Girls Club. From his very first sessions, it was clear that he possessed the talent, determination, and work ethic to go far in the game.
Over the years, Jackson has progressed through Cambrian’s Academy pathway, representing the club across multiple age groups and showcasing not only his footballing ability but also his commitment to improving every season. His journey is a testament to the club’s belief in nurturing young players and providing them with the environment to succeed.
A Club Built on Player Development
Reaching Player #98 is a significant moment in Cambrian United’s history. It reflects the club’s proud tradition of developing and producing footballers who go on to join professional clubs across Wales and beyond. Few clubs at this level can boast such a record of success, and Jackson’s achievement further strengthens Cambrian’s reputation as one of the leading player development clubs in Welsh football.
Academy Manager, Gareth Evans, commented:
“Jackson’s move is another proud moment for everyone at Cambrian United. To see him become the 98th player from our club to sign for a professional side shows the strength of our pathway and the commitment we have to developing young talent. Jackson has worked incredibly hard since joining us from Penydarren at the age of 10, and this opportunity with Swansea City is fully deserved. We wish him the very best and will be following his progress closely.”
Looking Ahead
With 98 players now having made the step from Cambrian United into professional football, the club is edging closer to the remarkable milestone of 100 players. This achievement highlights not only the club’s Academy structure, but also the dedication of the coaching staff, volunteers, parents, and community who all play a vital role in supporting player development.
Congratulations, Jackson!
