Career

Wycombe Wanderers

Scowen came through Wycombe Wanderers's youth system, making his professional debut on 26 March 2011, in their 3–0 away win over Morecambe in League Two.[3] He came on as substitute for Kevin Betsy in the 89th minute.[3] Wycombe striker, Scott Rendell said; "It's great to see him come out and get his chance because he will be a big player for this club if he carries on doing what he’s doing."[4]

In April 2011, he was one of four Wycombe academy scholars to be awarded professional contracts by the club.[5] On 21 October 2011, he signed a three-month loan deal with Hemel Hempstead Town.[6]

Eastbourne Borough (loan)

Scowen joined Eastbourne Borough on a six-month loan deal in August 2012, reuniting him with former Hemel Hempstead manager Tommy Widdrington.[7]

Return to Wycombe

Scowen was recalled by Wycombe following their appointment of a new manager.[8] After a strong first half to the 2014–15 season, Scowen attracted the attention of several higher-league clubs, and in January 2015, Scowen left Wycombe to join Barnsley.

Barnsley

On 15 January 2015, Scowen joined League One, Barnsley, for a fee of £240,000.[9]
