Playing career[]

Harper-Penman began his career with local side Barnstaple Town, playing in their youth team.[2] He attended training sessions in Chivenor with the Plymouth Argyle Development Centre before joining the club's Centre of Excellence in 2008 on a two-year contract.[2] Having progressed to the club's youth team, he signed a two-year professional apprenticeship which began in July 2010.[1][3] He was promoted to the first team squad in April 2011, along with Jake Baker, after impressing manager Peter Reid while playing for the reserve side.[4][5] "It's all experience for them being with the first team, and you can't buy that," said Reid.[4] He made his debut on 5 April 2011 in a 2–0 defeat at Leyton Orient, replacing Joe Mason as a second-half substitute.[6][7] Harper-Penman signed his first professional contract in July 2012.[8]

He joined Southern League Premier Division side Bideford on loan for three months on 4 August.[9][10] Harper-Penman returned to Argyle at the end of the loan and was released when his contract expired in December.[11] He rejoined Western League Premier Division club Barnstaple Town in January 2013,[12][13] and scored three goals in his first two appearances.[14][15] He moved to Frome Town in March until the end of the season,[16][17] and played in three games.[18] Harper-Penman joined Southern League Premier Division side Truro City in August, having spent time on trial there in pre-season,[19] and made one appearance later that month.[20] He returned to Barnstaple in September and scored in his first game.[21][22]

Personal life[]

Harper-Penman was born in Barnstaple,[citation needed] and has an older brother called Aaron, who has played non-league football as a defender.[10] He attended Pilton Community College in Barnstaple in his youth.[2][5] His grandad is of Indian descent.
