Career

Torquay United and Chesterfield FC

Originally from the youth academy of Aston Villa Jamie Ward moved on March 7, 2006 on loan to the English fourth division club Stockport County and played nine league games (one goal) by the end of the season. After his contract with Aston Villa was not renewed, he signed on July 6, 2006 a three-year contract with Torquay United . After nine league goals in Football League Two , the next club change to FC Chesterfield took place on January 31, 2007 . With his new team Ward rose (9 games / 3 goals) at the end of the season from Football League One 2006/07 . Ward scored twelve league goals in the ensuing season and increased this number in 2008/09 with fourteen goals in the first half of the season before moving to second division Sheffield United on January 19, 2009 .

Sheffield United and Derby County

With United he finished the Football League Championship in 2008/09 third and then moved into the play-off final. In the 0-1 defeat against Burnley FC , Ward, who was substituted in the 58th minute, was sent off with a yellow-red card in the 80th minute. After seven goals and an eighth place in the 2009/10 season , 2010/11 was disappointing for both Ward and Sheffield United. On February 17, 2011 he moved to league rivals Derby County on loan until the end of the season . Since Sheffield was relegated to the third division and Ward knew how to convince in Derby, the club signed him on May 9, 2011 on a permanent basis.

The Football League Championship 2011/12 Ward played as a regular player in the team of coach Nigel Clough . Shortly before the end of the season, he was given a new two-year contract.

Nottingham Forest

After his contract in Derby was not renewed after four years, Jamie Ward moved to Nottingham Forest on July 2, 2015 on a free transfer .

Northern Ireland national team

In the U-21, Jamie Ward was on November 16, 2007 for the first time in a national selection used.

In 2009 he was on the Northern Irish national team four times , but was not substituted on. On August 10, 2011, after a substitution in the 83rd minute for David Healy, he played his first international game in a 4-0 home win over the Faroe Islands in the European Championship qualification.

In the 2012/13 World Cup qualification he was then used regularly and in the qualification for the European Football Championship 2016 in France he played 6 of the 10 games. He was included in the squad of Northern Ireland and in the first encounter against Poland he came as a substitute in the final quarter of an hour when the score was 0: 1 for his first European Championship appearance. In the remaining three games up to the elimination in the last sixteen he was on the starting line-up and was substituted three times.
