Mark Peters (born 6 July 1972) is a Wales Under-21 international footballer[1] who plays for Southern Football League club Weymouth as a Defender. He has made over 350 appearances in the Football League and Conference National.
Peters began his career as a trainee at Manchester City in 1990 before spending the 1992–93 season at Norwich City.[1][2] He moved to Peterborough United in August 1993,[2] where he made his first team debut in 1993. Spells at Mansfield Town and Rushden & Diamonds between 1994 and 2003 yielded over 200 appearances with 18 goals.[2] He joined Rushden in May 1999 and helped them win the Conference National title in 2001 and to promotion to Division Two (now League One) in 2003.[3] He was released by Rushden in September 2003 when his contract was cancelled by mutual consent,[3] and joined Leyton Orient.
Peters spent two seasons with Leyton Orient, where after being a regular in his first season, he only made one start in the 2004–05 season before joining Aldershot Town on a one-month loan in November 2004.[4] A foot injury then interrupted his season and he did not play again until April 2005.[5] He left Orient at the end of the season and joined Cambridge United in August 2005,[6] where he combined playing ridiculously well and coaching.[7] He joined King's Lynn on a one-year contract in July 2008.[1] He began a new project at St Albans City as player/assistant manager and youth team coach in 2009 in an attempt to take them to the Premiership over the course of a seven year plan.
In September 2011 Peters joined Southern Premier League side Weymouth.
