Club career

Greatwich was born in Brighton, and began his football career as a schoolboy with Brighton & Hove Albion. Released as a 16-year-old, he made his debut in first-team football for Burgess Hill Town of the Isthmian League Division One South, and won the club's Young Player of the Year award for the 2005–06 season.

In 2007, he went to the United States to begin a course in Sports Management at Towson University, Maryland, where he played for the Towson Tigers soccer team.
