Adam Christopher Nowland (born 6 July 1981 in Preston) is an English retired footballer.
Nowland started his career at Blackpool in 1998 where he made his professional debut at the age of 17. When he scored the first of his six League goals for the club, on 19 September, he became the youngest Blackpool player ever to score a League goal. Despite making 81 appearances (including 51 as a substitute in the League) and scoring seven goals for the Seasiders, he was released by manager Steve McMahon in 2001.
He signed for Wimbledon on 5 June 2001 where he made 63 appearances, scoring seven goals.
Nowland signed for West Ham United on 23 January 2004, making eleven appearances for the club that season. After playing five games at the start of the 2004–05 season, Nowland was loaned out for one month to Gillingham on 30 September 2004, where he played three games, scoring one goal against Burnley. On his return to West Ham he played in their 1–0 League Cup defeat to Chelsea on 27 October.
On 5 November 2004 Nottingham Forest signed Nowland for £250,000. He made his debut the following day in a 2–1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux. However, he was to make only five appearances that season.
Nowland joined Preston North End on a free transfer on 27 August 2005. His debut came on 16 September in 1–0 home defeat by Stoke City. He made a good start for the club, scoring three goals in nine starts, but then suffered a broken leg on 2 January 2006 in a 3–0 victory over Norwich City at Carrow Road after a bad challenge by Dickson Etuhu – a player still on loan from Preston at the time. He was out of action for the rest of the 2005–06 season and missed most of the 2006–07 season before returning to action on 17 March 2007 in a 2–0 home win over Lancashire rivals Burnley. It was to be his only appearance that season.
