Career
[edit]Early career
[edit]Fenwick was born in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear.[1] He played for Newcastle United, Sunderland and Middlesbrough academies before joining Gretna in 2009.[3] He left the latter in the same year, and subsequently joined Newcastle Benfield in 2010.[citation needed]
In August 2012, Fenwick signed with Durham City, scoring 18 goals from 32 appearances in his first season[4] and 33 goals from 41 appearances in the second.[5] He moved to fellow Northern League team Dunston UTS in June 2014,[6] and scored 13 goals in all competitions,[7] of which 7 came from his 12 league appearances.[8]
Hartlepool United
[edit]On 7 November 2014, Fenwick signed an 18-month contract with Hartlepool United.[9] He made his professional debut eight days later, replacing Matt Crooks in a 1–0 defeat against Southend United.[10]
Fenwick was handed his first start on 22 November 2014, and scored his team's only goal in a 3–1 defeat at home to York City.[11]
Fenwick scored three goals in five matches during January 2015 against Cheltenham Town, Tranmere Rovers and Plymouth Argyle and formed a good partnership with strike partner Rakish Bingham to help Pools get their first wins for three months.[12][13][14] Unfortunately for Fenwick, after scoring Hartlepool's only goal in a 3–1 defeat at home to Stevenage on 14 February, he was ruled out for six weeks with an ankle injury.[15] He returned in time for Hartlepool's relegation battle and scored the opening goal in a crucial 2–1 win against Exeter City which confirmed Pools' survival.[16]
Fenwick started the 2015–16 season partnering Rakish Bingham and Billy Paynter up front, helping Hartlepool win their first four matches and scoring the winner in a 1–0 home win against Newport County.[17] Despite scoring against Newport, Fenwick was dropped for Rhys Oates but returned for the Football League Trophy match at home to Sheffield United, scoring Pools' equaliser but missed a penalty in the shoot-out.[18] Fenwick was once again dropped to the bench but returned against Yeovil Town to score Pools' opening goal in a 2–1 away win.[19]
York City
[edit]On 4 July 2016, Fenwick joined newly relegated National League club York City on a one-year contract, with the option of a second year.[20] He made his debut when starting their 1–1 away draw with Maidstone United on 6 August 2016, in the opening match of 2016–17.[21] According to Dave Flett of The Press, Fenwick found the "going tough in attack", and was substituted for Richard Brodie in the 84th minute.[22] He was an unused substitute as York beat Macclesfield Town 3–2 at Wembley Stadium in the 2017 FA Trophy Final.[23] He was released by York at the end of the 2016–17 season.[24]
Later career
[edit]Fenwick signed for National League North club Darlington on 4 August 2017 after a successful trial.[25] After making four substitute appearances in 25 days, he left the club by mutual consent.[26] He signed for Maltese Premier League club Naxxar Lions, and made his debut on 10 September 2017, starting in a 0–0 away draw with Valletta.[27] After four goals from twelve league appearances and two goals in the Maltese FA Trophy, Fenwick was released by mutual consent on 2 January 2018 because he wanted to return home.[28]
Fenwick signed for National League South club Chelmsford City on 9 March 2018.[29] He scored a hat-trick of penalties for Chelmsford on 9 April in their 4–2 win against Whitehawk, becoming the first player in the history of the club to do so.[30][31] Five days later, Fenwick scored a hat-trick of penalties for the second consecutive match, scoring all four Chelmsford goals in a 4–2 win against East Thurrock United.[32] On 13 May 2019, Chelmsford announced the departure of Fenwick.[33]
On 14 June 2019, Fenwick returned to North East England, signing for Blyth Spartans.[34] His season was disrupted by injury, and he made only 11 appearances in the National League North before being released at the end of his contract.[35][36][21]
In late July, he signed for League of Ireland club Cork City until the end of the season.[37]
In March 2021, Fenwick joined Scottish League One club Forfar Athletic until the end of the season.[38] He scored his first goals in a brace away to Partick Thistle, and finished the season with four goals from 13 matches in all competitions.[39]
Fenwick signed for Northern Premier League Division One West club Workington on 3 January 2022.[40] He made 16 appearances, mainly as a substitute, and scored once as Workington reached and lost to Marine in the play-offs.[41]
In October 2022, after training with the club for some weeks to maintain fitness, Fenwick signed for Consett of the Northern Premier League East Division.[42]
In February 2024, Fenwick again moved abroad, signing for Australian club Altona East Phoenix.[43]
Fenwick returned to English football in September 2024 when he joined Northern Premier League East Division club Grimsby Borough.[44]
