Adam Pearce (born 8 January 1997) is an Australian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Central Coast Mariners in the A-League.
Pearce was raised in Forster, New South Wales, before moving to Newcastle, aged fifteen. [1] In Newcastle, he attended Hunter Sports High School. [2] Pearce began playing football aged four, but did not move into goals until aged thirteen, previously playing as a defender. [2]
Pearce's first experience of senior football came in the Northern NSW State League Division 1, for Newcastle Jets youth, where coach (and former Australian international) Clayton Zane praised Pearce's potential and passing ability. [2] For the 2014 National Premier Leagues season, Pearce moved to Broadmeadow Magic. [1] In October 2014, it was announced that Pearce had joined Central Coast Mariners' youth squad to play in the 2014–15 National Youth League. [3] He was called up to the senior squad for the first time and was an unused substitute against Sydney FC in an A-League match in November 2014 following an injury to Liam Reddy. [1] Reddy's departure in late 2015 and suspension and international selection for Paul Izzo led Pearce and fellow young 'keeper Tom Heward-Belle to be called up to the senior side. [4] He made his A-League debut for the Mariners in a loss to Western Sydney Wanderers in April 2016. [5] Pearce was in A-League action again a week later, coming on as an early substitute after Paul Izzo suffered a concussion in the opening minute of an eventual loss to Newcastle Jets. [6] On 6 April 2017, he signed a one-year professional contract with Central Coast Mariners. [7]

The top tier of Australian soccer was renamed the A-League for the start of the 2005–06 season. This is a list of the all-time A-League records since the inaugural season of the league in 2005. This list encompasses records set by players, managers and clubs. The club records section includes details of record match results, points, goals and titles. Attendance records are also included in the list. The all-time A-League table is a cumulative record of all match results, points and goals of every team that has played in the league. The player records section includes details of the league's leading goalscorers and those who have made most appearances. It also records notable achievements by players.
The 2012–13 A-League was the 36th season of top-flight soccer in Australia, and the eighth season of the Australian A-League since its establishment in 2004. The 2012–13 season saw the introduction of a new Western Sydney-based team, the return of Newcastle Jets FC after their A-League licence was returned by FFA, and the end of Gold Coast United after they were removed from the competition at the end of the previous season. This season was also the last A-League season to be broadcast exclusively on paid television, after SBS obtained the rights to a live Friday night game each week of the A-League season, and all A-League finals games on a one-hour delay, on a $160 million four-year broadcast deal, effective from the 2013–14 A-League season onwards.
The 2012–13 season is Sydney FC's eighth consecutive season in the A-League since its foundation season in 2005–2006. Sydney started the season under the management of Ian Crook until his departure on 11 November 2012, being replaced by assistant coach Steve Corica who took up a caretaker role from 12–27 November. On 28 November Frank Farina was appointed as manager and Steve Corica returned to assistant coach.
The 2013–14 A-League was the 37th season of top-flight soccer in Australia, and the ninth of the A-League since its establishment in 2004. The season began on 11 October 2013, with Western Sydney Wanderers as the defending A-League Premiers and Central Coast Mariners as the defending A-League Champions. The regular season concluded on 13 April 2014, with Brisbane Roar crowned Premiers. The 2014 Grand Final took place on 4 May 2014, with Brisbane Roar claiming their third Championship with a 2–1 win in extra time against Western Sydney Wanderers.
The 2013–14 Western Sydney Wanderers FC season was the club's second season since its establishment in 2012. The club participated in the A-League for the second time, as well as the AFC Champions League for the first time.
The 2013–14 Brisbane Roar season was Roar's ninth season in the A-League. Having arguably fallen from their mantle of being the best team in the country, the Roar were striving to get back to title winning ways by any means necessary. The failure to qualify for the AFC Champions League was seen as an advantage, allowing the club to focus on domestic competition without the distraction of foreign competition. Manager Mike Mulvey was also looking to make his mark on the club during his first full pre season at the club and prove his credentials to the country in the new season.
The 2013–14 Central Coast Mariners FC season was the club's ninth season since its establishment in 2004, and included the 2013–14 A-League season as well as the 2014 AFC Champions League.
The 2013–14 Newcastle Jets FC season is the club's 13th season since its foundation in 2000. The club participated in the A-League for the 9th time.
The 2014–15 National Youth League was the seventh season of the Australian National Youth League competition. The season ran in parallel with the 2014–15 A-League season.
This is a list of Australian football transfers for the 2015–16 A-League. Only moves featuring at least one A-League club are listed.
The 2015–16 Central Coast Mariners FC season was the club's 11th season since its establishment in 2004. The club participated in the A-League for the 11th time and the FFA Cup for the 2nd time.
