Career
Portsmouth
Cowan-Hall joined Premier League side Portsmouth from non-league outfit Rushden & Diamonds in 2007. Before he joined Pompey, he previously spent time on trial with Manchester United and Chelsea as a 16 year old. He made his way into the Portsmouth reserve side where he made success and flew out with the Portsmouth first team to Portugal in their 2009 pre-season, where he made an appearance against Vitória. On 2 January 2010, Cowan-Hall joined Grimsby Town on loan,[2] making his first appearance as a late substitute in injury time against Bury.[3] The following week, Cowan-Hall missed the league clash with Cheltenham Town due to tonsillitis, and several days later he was forced to cut short his loan spell after contracting glandular fever.[4] On 27 January 2010, Cowan-Hall re-signed for Grimsby for a second loan spell, this time until the end of the 2009–10 season.[5] However in March 2010 he returned to Portsmouth early with a hamstring injury after making only 2 substitute appearances in his second spell at Blundell Park.[6] He was released by Portsmouth in July 2010 after the clubs relegation from the Premier League.[7]

In October 2010, Cowan-Hall made an appearance for Scunthorpe United reserves on trial. After impressing he was invited back to their reserve match the next week. He scored the only goal of the game against Leeds United reserves at Elland Road.[13] Following this performance, in October 2010, he was offered a place at Scunthorpe United on non-contract terms until the end of the 2010–11 season.[14] In February 2011, Cowan-Hall returned to Rushden & Diamonds on loan. On his return to Irtlingborough, he scored on his debut against Eastbourne Borough. Cowan-Hall was released by the Iron in May 2011.[15]
Woking

Notes
- ^ Soccerbase's stats for the match between Grimsby Town and Bury on 2 January 2010 (which happen to be his senior debut) fail to include the appearance by Cowan-Hall.[3] Therefore, until and unless they correct it, he should have one more appearance for Grimsby than given on his Soccerbase page.
