Club career

Coombes signed for English Isthmian League Division One South club Fleet Town FC in September 2010.[4] He made his debut for the club against Eastbourne Town FC away from home, and drew 1–1.[5]

Returning to New Zealand, Coombes re-signed with Auckland City for the 2011-12 ASB Premiership.[6] In 2012 he signed for cross town rivals Waitakere United[7]

Coombes signed for WaiBOP United for the 2014–15 ASB Premiership season[8] Despite showing promise for the club on the pitch, he returned to Waitakere United for the 2015–16 ASB Premiership season.[9]

International career

Coombes made his international debut on 3 March 2010 after being called up to the national team for their pre-world cup friendly against Mexico as a replacement for Craig Henderson who was injured whilst training for his club.[10] New Zealand would go onto lose the game 2–0.[11]
