Career

Born in Bellshill, Ewings began his career at Motherwell but left the club in 2005 without making a first-team appearance. From there he moved to Albion Rovers. [1] In 2007, he left Albion Rovers for a scholarship in the US. [2] [3]

In February 2008, Ewings signed for League of Ireland club Drogheda United on a one-year contract. [4] During his time at Drogheda he played as the club took on Dynamo Kyiv in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers, [5] but his stay there ended in disappointment with the club experiencing financial problems. [3]

Ewings then returned to Scotland for a second spell at Albion Rovers. [6] On 19 June 2010, he then moved to Alloa Athletic. [7]

On 4 June 2011 Ewings signed for Dumbarton. [8] In April 2012, he spent time on loan at junior club Arthurlie. [9] Ahead of the 2013–14 season, Ewings signed a new one-year contract with Dumbarton. [10] On 16 May 2014 Ewings committed himself to Dumbarton, signing a new one-year deal. [11] Exactly a year later he signed on for another year at the Rock. [12]

He made his first appearance for the club in 14 months keeping a clean sheet a 0–0 draw with Raith Rovers in January 2016, and became the club's first choice goalkeeper for the remainder of the season. [13] He signed a new one-year deal with the club in May 2016, taking him into his sixth season with the club [14]

He missed the first seven months of the 2016–17 season after picking up a serious back injury, and failed to make a competitive appearance for the club all season due to the form of Alan Martin. With Martin leaving that summer he was rewarded with a new deal in May 2017, taking into his 7th season with the Sons. [15] In June 2017 it was announced that he would also become the club's new goalkeeping coach. [16] After not featuring in a competitive game for 15 months, Ewings returned to action as a substitute for the injured Scott Gallacher in a Scottish Challenge Cup victory against Stranraer in October 2017. [17] Ewings was released as a player in May 2018, but remained the club's goalkeeping coach. [18] He was appointed joint caretaker manager along with Ian Durrant following Stephen Aitken's sacking in October 2018. [19]

After nine seasons with the club as a player and coach, Ewings left Dumbarton in October 2020. [20]
