Byron Junior Harrison (born 15 June 1987) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for Barrow.
Harrison began his football career with Conference South side Havant & Waterlooville in 2005, having been recommended to the club by former player Darren Annon. He made his debut for Havant in October 2005, coming on as a substitute in the 70th minute in a game away at Farnborough Town. A week later, he scored his first professional goal, scoring twenty minutes after coming on a substitute in Havant's FA Cup tie against Cirencester Town. In November 2005, Harrison was on the scoresheet again, this time in an FA Trophy game against Weymouth. Harrison continued to make sporadic substitute appearances throughout the season. He left Havant at the end of the 2005–06 campaign, having made a total of 22 appearances, all of which were from the substitute's bench. The club kept the door open to Harrison, and offered him the opportunity to come back in a years time after he had played more first-team football.
Harrison started the 2006–07 season playing for Worthing of the Isthmian League Premier Division, having signed for the club on a free transfer in July 2006. He left Worthing in November 2006, and subsequently signed for Boreham Wood. Harrison made his Boreham Wood debut in December 2006, coming on as a substitute in a 4–1 win at Folkestone Invicta. After his debut, Boreham Wood manager Steve Cook said "Byron is very young and enthusiastic and I have a gut feeling about him". In January 2007, Harrison suffered a leg injury that ruled him out for six weeks. On his return from injury, on 3 March, Harrison scored his first goals for the club, a hat-trick against his former employers, Worthing, in a 3–2 win at Meadow Park. He added another goal to his tally in a 2–0 away win at Margate, as well as scoring successive braces in away victories at Hendon and Slough Town. Harrison ended the 2006–07 season as Boreham Wood's top goalscorer, having scored 13 times in 21 appearances.
