Jon Steven Shaw (born 10 November 1983) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker.
Born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, Shaw is a product of the Sheffield Wednesday youth system and was a prolific goalscorer for the second string. He made his first team debut as a 75th minute substitute coming on for Gerald Sibon in the FA Cup third round against Gillingham at the Priestfield Stadium during a 3–1 defeat on 7 January 2003. His first league appearance came on the final game of the 2002–03 season, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute at Hillsborough for a 2–1 victory over Walsall. He signed his first professional contract with the club on 2 July 2003.
The following season he joined Third Division team York City on a month's loan for first team experience, making an encouraging debut in a 1–0 victory over Doncaster Rovers. The loan was extended for a further two months in December. He made eight appearances but failed to score before he was recalled by Wednesday in January 2004 due to an injury crisis at the club. He made his first appearance since returning in a 4–0 victory over Scunthorpe United in the Football League Trophy. Shaw made eight starts that season for Wednesday and scored his first two senior goals, with a header against Luton Town and a long range effort against Queens Park Rangers in front of 29,313 fans at Hillsborough. Both goals came on the second last and last games of the season respectively.
