Mat rose up the levels quickly as a teenager, breaking through at Redhill in the Combined Counties Premier South before moving on to South Park in the Isthmian South Central in February 2022 where he continued to make a name for himself in local non-League circles.
Hanwell Town spotted his potential and they brought him to the Club during the summer of 2022 where he quickly established himself as one of the best young players in the Southern League. His debut season with Hanwell saw Mat reel in the Club’s Supporter’s, Committee’s and Young Player of the Season award for the 2022/23 campaign.
Over the last two seasons, he further cemented himself as one of the first names on the teamsheet at Hanwell, and eclipsed 100 career appearances for the Club in March 2025 en route to finishing out a strong season, finishing eighth in the Southern League Premier South.
