Sam Oliver Slocombe (born 5 June 1988) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Blackpool. He began his career with Bottesford Town in the Northern Counties East Football League. In 2008, he moved to his hometown club Scunthorpe United. Slocombe had made over 130 for Scunthorpe and was the club's longest-serving player, before being released by them in 2015.
Slocombe was born in Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire. On 15 August 2008, he signed with League One side Scunthorpe United from Bottesford Town for £3,000 and a pre-season friendly. He made his first team debut on 22 September 2009, in a League Cup clash with Port Vale, replacing Joe Murphy, following a 25th minute injury to Murphy. He made his league debut in the Championship match against Blackpool on 7 November 2009, replacing Michael O'Connor after Murphy was sent off for deliberate handball. On 5 May 2015 it was announced that Slocombe wouldn't be offered a new deal and was free to leave the club.
