Gavin Cadwallader (born April 18, 1986 in Shrewsbury) is an English professional football (soccer) player who currently plays for Aberystwyth Town in the League of Wales. He used to play as a defender, but has converted to midfield with the Black and Greens.
Starting his career as a trainee with Shrewsbury, he made his first appearance in the 2-2 League Two draw at Carlisle United on February 14, 2006. His second and final match of the 2005-06 season came in the 1-1 draw at Grimsby Town on April 15, 2006.
At the end of the season, following the completion of his three-year scholarship programme, he was handed a professional contract despite failing to convince club manager Gary Peters of his worth. Peters said, "[He] was injured most of the way through it so last year I gave a year pro contract to see if he could prove himself. He's not convinced me yet but is a late developer so I've given him another year to prove himself." [1]
In January 2007, Cadwallader was released by Shrewsbury, along with fellow squad player Marco Adaggio. He played for Kidderminster Harriers reserves in late January, but signed for League of Wales club Aberystwyth Town on February 23, 2007. [2]
