Yeovil Town Born in
Truro,
Cornwall, At the start of the 2005–06 season Alcock was awarded a first team contract along with fellow youth teammates
Tom Clarke and Jake Smeeton. Due to being over-age for playing in the youth side for Yeovil Town, he had three short-term
loan spells in the 2006–07 season with
Conference South side
Weston-super-mare, Southern League sides
Taunton Town and
Tiverton Town. He made his first team debut as a substitute away at
Gillingham in the final league match of the
2006–07 season. After making a breakthrough and challenging for the number one right back slot in the
2007–08 season, Alcock became a regular starter during the
2008–09 season due to injuries and suspensions concerning
Lee Peltier. In February 2008 Alcock had to play in goal after an injury to
Steve Mildenhall against
Walsall; he came on at 0-0 but Yeovil ended up losing 2–0.
Peterborough United Despite being offered a new deal at Yeovil, in July 2011 Alcock signed for
Peterborough United on a three-year deal with Yeovil receiving £100,000 in compensation due to his age. Alcock made 112 appearances for Posh in all competitions over his three seasons at the club, including winning the
EFL Trophy in 2014, before being released at the end of the
2013–14 season.
Sheffield United In July 2014, Alcock signed a two-year deal with
Sheffield United. Alcock started as a regular in the side both at centre half and then in his more customary role at right back. However, after an injury he has found himself in a more peripheral role, made harder by the January arrivals of additional full backs
Kieron Freeman and
John Brayford. In his second season at United, Alcock again found match time hard to come by, and as a result joined fellow
League One side
Doncaster Rovers on a 28-day loan on 10 November 2015. The loan was made permanent on 7 January 2016.
Cheltenham Town On 7 August 2018,
Cheltenham Town signed the now free agent Alcock on a free transfer. On 26 January 2019, Alcock was released by Cheltenham.
Yeovil Town On 1 February 2019, following his release from Cheltenham, Alcock re-signed for
Yeovil Town on a contract until the end of the 2018–19 season. ==Personal life==
