Jake Tom Tabor (born 25 August 2003) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for Eastleigh, on loan from EFL League Two club Swindon Town.
Tabor spent his early career with Sarratt, Berkhamsted Comrades, [3] Berkhamsted, Crawley Green and Oxhey Jets. [4] After playing for Harpenden Town, Tabor joined Rayners Lane, [5] before signing on a dual registration for Northwood in October 2022. [6] He then played for Leighton Town, also on a dual registration. [4] He later played for Amersham Town, [7] [8] [9] [10] scoring 66 goals for Amersham in the 2023–24 season. [11]
Following a trial with the club, [12] which Swindon manager Ian Holloway described as the best he had ever seen, [13] Tabor signed for Swindon Town in June 2025, signing his first professional contract with the club. [14] [15] [16] [17] He had interest from other clubs prior to signing for Swindon. [18] Tabor's adaptation to professional training was praised by Swindon manager Ian Holloway, [19] and a large number of bets were placed on Tabor to be the league's top scorer. [20]
On 13 September 2025, Tabor joined National League South club Bath City on a one-month loan deal. [21] The loan was extended in October 2025 for another month, [22] before he was recalled by Swindon in November due to injuries at the parent club. [23] His performances on loan at Bath were praised by Holloway. [24] On 30 January 2026, it was announced that he would return to Bath City on loan for the remainder of the season, [25] however due to an EFL ruling regarding short-term loan regulations, his return to Bath was not permitted, and instead, on 6 February 2026, Tabor joined National League side Eastleigh on loan until the end of the season. [26] [27]
Known as a prolific goalscorer at non-league level, Tabor has been compared to Jamie Vardy. [28]
