Playing career

Club career

McClements began his career at Institute as a youth before joining English club Sheffield Wednesday where he was part of the club's youth academy.[1] He was called into the senior squad at the start of the 2006–07 season in the Championship to ease the club's injury problems.

After being an unused substitute in a couple of league games, McClement made his first team debut as a 66th-minute substitute in a 4–1 defeat home defeat to Wrexham in the League Cup on 23 August 2006. [2] He continued to play in the club's reserve team and in the Owls youth team in the Premier Academy League, while also becoming a regular unused substitute in the first team fixtures.[3] On 31 January 2007 McClements was one of six players nominated in the shortlist for the Championship Young Apprentice Award Trophy.[4]

At the end of the 2006-07 season he signed a one-year senior deal with the club.[5] On 17 October 2007 he joined Conference North club Hinckley United on a month loan, where he made two appearances.[1][6]

After spending most of the season as a regular in the reserve team, McClements was sent on loan to Northern Premier League Premier Division club, Buxton on 3 March 2008 for four weeks,[7] but made just one appearance for the club.[8] He failed to establish himself in the first team at Hillsborough and was released by Wednesday manager Brian Laws on 14 May 2008.[9]

In November 2008 McClements returned to Northern Ireland in a bid to resurrect his career and after spending time training with IFA Premiership club Coleraine,[10] he signed for them on 14 November.[11] However Mcclements found himself going out on loan to his first club Institute, and then Tobermore United who he is now currently playing for.[citation needed]

International career

McClements has been selected for Northern Ireland at Under-17, Under-19 and Under-20 level. In February 2006 he was called up to the Under-17 squad for a friendly against Luxembourg Under-17's.[12]

In October 2007 he was part of the Under-19 squad that played three matches in a min-tournament in Cyprus against the Under-19 teams from the host country, Austria and Slovakia.[13]

In May 2008 he named in the Under-20 squad for friendlies against Luxembourg Under-20s and French club FC Metz.[14]
