Scott John High (born 15 February 2001) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for FC Halifax Town, on loan from EFL League One club Huddersfield Town. Born in England, High has represented Scotland at under-21 level.

Club career

Born in Dewsbury, High began his career with Huddersfield Town. He moved on loan to Concord Rangers in November 2019 until January 2020, but was recalled by Huddersfield a month later. He returned to Concord Rangers in February 2020 for a second loan spell.

High made his senior debut for Huddersfield on 22 July 2020, the last day of the 2019–20 season. On 3 August 2020, he joined League One side Shrewsbury Town on loan for the 2020–21 season. He scored his first senior career goal on 4 September 2020, netting for Shrewsbury in a 4–3 away defeat to Middlesbrough in an EFL Cup match. On 29 December 2020 it was announced that his loan deal had ended. He joined Rotherham United on a season-long loan on 29 July 2022. However, his loan was terminated on 11 January 2023.

In September 2023 he signed on loan for Scottish club Ross County. On 8 January 2024, High returned to Huddersfield following a lack of playing time.

On 4 February 2024, High was loaned to League of Ireland Premier Division club Dundalk until the summer.

On 7 September 2024, High joined National League club FC Halifax Town on loan, initially until 3 November 2024. Halifax wanted to extend the loan, but due to injury it was not, although High returned to Halifax on loan in December 2024.

International career

High was first named in the Scotland under-21 squad in August 2021. He made seven appearances without scoring.
