Boima "Jerry" Karpeh (born June 16, 1984 in Liberia ) is a Liberian-Australian football player .

Career

At the age of six, Karpeh and his family fled from Liberia to Nigeria because of the civil war and finally came to Perth in Western Australia as a refugee . There he made his first football steps in the adult area in the reserves of Perth SC before he moved to the Dianella White Eagles in the First Division of Western Australia , the second highest division at the state level.

After he was the fourth top scorer in the First Division in 2002 with 13 goals this season, he switched to the more ambitious league competitor Bayswater City SC for the 2003 season ; He also took part in the spring of 2003 as a guest player for the APIA Leichhardt Tigers at the Torneo di Viareggio in Italy. With 21 goals this season, he was the second top scorer in the league in 2003 and rose to the Premier League of Western Australia by winning the championship with Bayswater . There succeeded in 2004 just about relegation, before he moved in the middle of the following season to league rivals Fremantle City SC , which ended the season, however, on a relegation zone. With his move to Floreat Athena , Karpeh remained in the top division at the state level for the 2006 season and experienced his most successful season in 2007. With 25 goals in 20 league games, including 4 hat tricks, he was by far the top goalscorer in the league and was instrumental in winning the championship, which succeeded without losing the season.

The year was crowned in November 2007 when he received a professional contract until the end of the season from the local A-League club Perth Glory . The entry into the professional field in the middle of the season turned out to be unsuccessful and after seven missions without a goal he did not receive a new contract at the end of the season. Karpeh then moved to the Whittlesea Zebras in the Victorian Premier League (VPL), the top division of the state of Victoria , which is said to have a higher level of play than its counterpart in Western Australia. A timely return to the A-League, he missed after an unsuccessful trial training with New Zealand representative Wellington Phoenix in May 2008. From 2009 to 2010 Karpeh was active for two seasons for the Oakleigh Cannons in the VPL. In January 2011, he signed a six-month contract with the Indian club Churchill Brothers SC , before Karpeh had also completed trial training at Home United (Singapore) and Chonburi FC (Thailand). After half a year in India he moved to Indonesia to Persisam Putra Samarinda in the Indonesia Super League . He returned to Perth in July 2012 and played a few games for Balcatta SC before signing a contract with Indonesian club Persiram Raja Ampat in early 2013 . A short time later he moved again to India for Pune FC , who signed him for the final phase of the season as a replacement for the Japanese Daisuke Nishiguchi . With six goals in seven missions, he helped Pune to second place in the table, but received no new contract after the season and then moved within the league to Sporting Clube de Goa .
