Signed in August 2026, defender Ben Jordison joined Bishop Auckland after impressing manager Martin Gray during pre-season and in a fixture against Northallerton.
Ben developed through Park View Academy of Sport before being recommended to Burnley FC. Following a successful trial, he was awarded a two-year scholarship with the Clarets, continuing his development within their academy setup.
At the start of the 2025/26 season, Ben joined Barnsley’s Under-21s before gaining further senior experience during a month-long loan spell with Stocksbridge Park Steels.
His performances for the Bishops during pre-season earned him the opportunity to become part of Martin Gray’s squad for the 2026/27 campaign.
