Lee John Worgan (born 1 December 1983 in Eastbourne) is an English-born Welsh goalkeeper currently a free agent.

Club career

Worgan began his career by coming through the youth ranks at Wimbledon and was one of a few players to stay with the squad during the move to become Milton Keynes Dons. However he never managed to establish himself there and spent two weeks on loan at Wycombe Wanderers during the 2003/04 season when they suffered a goalkeeper injury crisis with Steve Williams, Frank Talia, and Tom Gott all out injured.[2]

In August 2004 he joined Rushden & Diamonds[3] on a free transfer but again failed to establish himself and at the end of the year he was released[4] and was signed by Cardiff City on another free transfer. He did not make a league appearance for Cardiff but did play in the FAW Premier Cup on one occasion. He was released by Cardiff at the end of the 2005/06 season[5] after having spent some of the season on loan at Merthyr Tydfil.

Since then he has played for Eastbourne Borough and in October 2006 he signed for Isthmian League Premier Division side Hastings United, making his debut in a 2-1 win over Croydon Athletic in the FA Trophy.[6] In his first year, after helping the side to promotion, he was unanimously voted the Supporters' Club player of the year[citation needed] and was quickly offered a one-year extension to his contract.

In May 2008 he signed for Tonbridge Angels. He received a red card on his competitive debut for Tonbridge against Wealdstone.[7]

In March 2011, he won the 'Sells Goalkeeping Academy Good Hands' award for the best defensive record in the Ryman Premier League that month, conceding three goals in six games.[8]

Worgan was named Tonbridge Angels player of the year for the 2010/11 season,[9] with performances against Bury Town and Wealdstone particularly impressing fans.[10]

At the end of the 2012-13 season, after five years at Tonbridge, 200+ appearances in all competitions and one promotion, Worgan announced that he was leaving the club.[11]

International career

Worgan has played for Wales through most youth levels and was a regular in the Wales U21 team for several years.[12]
