After joining Ilkeston Town, he signed a new contract with the club in February 2024.[10] Following rich goalscoring form across both seasons,[11] which saw 12 goals in 18 games in 2023–24,[12] and 25 goals in 31 games in 2024–25,[13] in September 2024 rejected an offer for Cursons from an unnamed club.[14] He also captained the football team of Nottingham Trent University.[15]

In January 2025, after reportedly attracting attention from a number of Football League teams,[16][17][18] Cursons signed for Harrogate Town,[19][20] turning professional with the club.[21]
