Lincoln City
In September 2000, Lincoln City's manager Phil Stant signed Mawson on-loan as cover for his first-choice keeper Alan Marriott.[1] Whilst the loan was extended to a second month,[2] Mawson would remain an unused substitute in each of Lincoln's nine league games during this period before returning to Burnley.
Other clubs
Mawson has also played for Morecambe and Oldham Athletic. Whilst at Christie Park he was voted Player of the Year by the supporters for the 2002-03 season, when he notably saved two penalties in the semi-final of the Conference playoffs. However the team failed to progress to the final.
Following the liquidation of Halifax Town, Mawson signed a deal with Conference North team Droylsden.
Hyde
On 2 July 2010, he signed for Droylsden's rivals Hyde.[3] He was due to make his Hyde debut on 17 July 2010 against Manchester City Reserves, but unexpectedly flew out to Singapore and had to be replaced by Brynn Hindley.[4]
Return to Burnley
On 1 September 2010 Mawson signed for Burnley[5] as a coach for the youth team.
Mawson was included in the reserve team on 27 October 2010 against Macclesfield and is a regular starter for the reserve team.
