Former Bristol Rovers centre-back who joined the Pitmen from Midland Football League side Coventry United in January 2021

​

Coventry-born Ison joined his local team United as a youngster in 2016 after spending time at the Gordon Strachan Football Academy and made several appearances in the Midland Football League during the season, attracting interest from several professional clubs in the process. In July 2017, he signed a one-year deal with Bristol Rovers and joined their academy side

​

His first season barely got started, however, after Ison suffered a serious ACL injury whilst playing for Rovers' reserves when he was on the cusp of the first team. Despite a long lay-off recovering, Ison was offered a one-year extension by the Pirates in the summer of 2018

​

After failing to make the breakthrough at the Memorial Stadium during the following season, Ison was one of several players released by the club in May 2019, returning to his West Midlands roots and linking up with Southern Premier League Central newcomers Nuneaton Borough. However, he elected to rejoin Coventry United the following month without making an appearance for Boro

​

He was an ever-present for United in the 2019-2020 season before the season was brought to a halt and subsequently voided in April 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic

​

After agreeing to remain at Coventry for the 2020-2021 season, Ison was again an ever-present at the Butts Park Arena with eleven starts until the season was once again brought to a halt due to the pandemic once more in November 2020

​

With grassroots football on hold for the foreseeable future, Ison elected to join the Pitmen in January 2021 after a move for the player by Hednesford manager Keenen Meakin-Richards. Despite not being able to make his first-team bow due to the season being voided in early 2021, Ison followed his new team-mates in agreeing to a new deal with the club ahead of the forthcoming season

​

It was to prove to be a hugely impressive debut season at Keys Park for Ison, as he became an ever-present in the side and took the captaincy from Ben Bailey after the legend's departure from the club midway through the season. Ison also showed his versatility, playing in various midfield roles and notching regular and important goals throughout the season. It came as little surprise, then, that Ison was named the supporters' Player of the Year at the end of the campaign

​

In May 2022, Ison was the first member of the squad to publically commit his future to the club as he signed an extension to his deal to remain at Hednesford for the 2022-223 season
