Career
Early career
Having been on the books of Hemel Hempstead Town as a youth player, Calcutt began his senior career with Berkhamsted, where he quickly gained a reputation as an exciting prospect, producing a 2013-14 tally of 41 goals from 52 appearances in all competitions. In the second half of that season, he joined St. Albans City as a dual-registration player, but only turned out for the side on one occasion. Towards the end of the season, he had a trial with Millwall.
Stevenage
Calcutt joined League Two club Stevenage on trial terms ahead of the 2014–15 season. As is customary for trialists, he was initially unnamed by the club, however an impressive goal in a home friendly against Premier League side West Ham United led to a campaign by Sky Sports to find the mystery goalscorer. He finally signed a contract with Stevenage on 9 August, making his Football League debut that same day as a late substitute at home to Hartlepool United. Stevenage won the game 1–0. Calcutt's first professional goal came in only his second League appearance away at Plymouth Argyle in a 1–1 draw, where he came on at half time for the injured Darius Charles.
Wealdstone (loan)
Calcutt moved on a month's loan to Conference South side Wealdstone on 24 October 2014.[2] However, the striker suffered a leg break in their 2–0 win at Chelmsford City on 18 November 2014, ruling him out for up to three months.
Wealdstone
In the summer of 2015, Calcutt returned to Wealdstone on a permanent basis. In October 2015 he signed on dual-registration at Southern Football League side Dunstable Town.[3]
Dunstable Town (loan) and Kings Langley
After scoring 10 in 29 appearances at Dunstable Town, Calcutt signed for newly promoted Southern League Premier Division side Kings Langley in June 2016.[4][5] However, Calcutt would begin the new season with Barton Rovers.[6]
=Bedford Town
At the end of November 2019, Calcutt moved to Bedford Town.[7] During 2020, Calcutt also played for Eynesbury Rovers on a dual registration.[8][9]
