Career

Birch started his career at Carlisle United and made his debut for the club on 21 December 2019 as a substitute in a 3–0 defeat away to Colchester United.[5] In February 2020, he was offered a professional contract with the club, signing a one-year contract with the club.[6][7] Birch was very excited to be offered a professional contract, stating that he was 'over the moon'.[8] In September 2020, Birch joined Northern Premier League Division One North West side Kendal Town on a season-long loan deal.[9] He scored once in 13 appearances for the club before his loan was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10][4] He was released by the club at the end of his contract in summer 2021.[11]

On 10 July 2021, Birch signed for Scottish League Two side Annan Athletic; Birch made his debut for the club that same day in a 1–1 Scottish League Cup draw against Airdrieonians, with Birch scoring Annan's third penalty in a 5–4 shoot-out win.[4]

On 7 January 2022, Birch signed for Northern League Division One side Penrith.[12]
