Gavin Cowan (born 24 May 1981 in Hanover, Germany) is an English footballer who currently plays for English League Two club Shrewsbury Town. He plays as a centre-back and wears the number 16 shirt for the club.
Cowan began his career at non-league Braintree Town and moved to Canvey Island in 2003. He fell out of favour with Canvey Island manager Jeff King and in early 2005 was sent out on loan to Nuneaton Borough.
Impressing for the Football Conference side, he was spotted by Shrewsbury Town who signed him on a permanent deal in March 2005.
Shrewsbury have not used him regularly, with Cowan playing 15 times in the 2005-06 season. Early into the 2006-07 season he was sent out on loan to Kidderminster Harriers to gain more experience.[1]. He was recalled from this loan a few days short of the agreed month, in order to give him more preparation time for Shrewsbury's next league game, for which he appeared on the bench.[2] However, he is yet to appear for the Shrews in 2006-07.
