Club career

Portsmouth

Tarbuck signed a two-year scholarship deal after spending many years in Portsmouth youth categories.[3] On 14 August 2012 he made his professional debut, coming on as a 72nd minute substitute for Andy Higgins in a League Cup 3–0 defeat against Plymouth Argyle.[4] He then spent the rest of the season in the academy, although he did play in a first-team friendly on 16 April 2013 scoring in a 2–1 win over Icelandic side IBV at Fratton Park.[5]

Tarbuck returned to the Academy for the 2013–14 season; after scoring 12 goals and being the club's topscorer in the youth leagues,[6] he was awarded a one-year professional deal on 9 May 2014.[7] He made his league debut for Pompey on 1 November, replacing Miles Storey in the 82nd minute of a 3–0 home win over Carlisle United.[8]

On 27 November 2014 Tarbuck joined Conference Premier side Dartford on loan until January.[9] He returned to Pompey at the end of the 2014–15 season, but was released on 18 May 2015.[10]

Dorchester Town

edit

On 30 January 2015, after appearing sparingly, Tarbuck moved to Dorchester Town on a one-month loan.[11] On 26 February Tarbuck's loan was extended for another month,[12] and he was named Dorchester's player of the month.

On 10 August 2015, Tarbuck signed a short-term deal at Dorchester Town, he later extended the deal until the end of the season.[13]

Havant & Waterlooville

edit

On 24 May 2016, Tarbuck left Dorchester and signed for Havant & Waterlooville.[14] Converted to a left wing-back by manager Lee Bradbury, he was a key unit in the club's two consecutive promotions.
