[edit] Career
[edit] Youth and College
Schofield was a member of the schoolboy academy at the famous English club Blackburn Rovers, but was never offered a senior contract by the team; he moved to the United States in 2000 to attend and play college soccer at Long Island University, where he was a three-time all conference pick.[1]
[edit] Professional
Schofield turned professional in 2004 when he signed with the Harrisburg City Islanders in the USL Second Division, and has been there ever since. He has made over 100 appearances for the Islanders since then, leading the team to the 2007 USL2 Championship. He is the most prolific playmaker in club history, ranking first all-time with 22 assists. On February 2, 2010 Harrisburg City announced the re-signing of Schofield for the 2010 season.[2]
Schofield also has professional indoor soccer experience, having played intermittently with the Philadelphia KiXX.
[edit] International
Schofield played for the England Schoolboys Under-18s team, but has never played for any of his country's senior teams. He did represent Great Britain in the summer of 2005 at the World University Games (2005 Summer Universiade) in Turkey.[3]
