Career

Mainwaring started his career meeting David Beckham on children's TV show Really Bend It Like Beckham . In the show Beckham Taught the 16 young 'hotshots' soccer skills in Madrid

Mainwaring, a Manchester United fan, came through Preston North End's Centre of Excellence youth system before signing a 12-month contract with Stockport in June 2008. This was with the intention of being part of the development squad while trying to establish himself in Stockport's first team by the end of the season.[1]

He made his initial first team appearance on 30 August 2008, coming on as a substitute in a 0-3 defeat against Scunthorpe. Hard work in the development squad was rewarded with a string of full first-team games in late January 2009, and Mainwaring scored his first professional goal in a 4-1 victory over Hereford on 31 January.

Despite playing on the left wing throughout his youth career, he has preferred playing in central midfield for Stockport.[1]

A broken leg, sustained in a friendly pre-season match against Grimsby Town on 25 July, spelled a lengthy period out of the matchday squad, being out of action for 5 months with a broken leg, in January 2010 he told the Stockport Express "I’ve been out for five months and I’m desperate to get back. I’m not back in training yet but I’m doing a lot of running and strength work and I’ve been doing a lot of exercises to build up my calf muscle.[2]

In September 2011 he was released by the club by mutual consent having not featured in the team for the 2011-12 season.

Mainwaring has also been a member of the Republic of Ireland U19 squad.

Was on trial at Hull City in November 2011.
