Born on 21 March 1993, in Southport, England, Bidwell's fascination with football began at a tender age. He joined the esteemed Everton FC's academy at just 11 years old, where he initially played as a goalkeeper. However, it wasn't until he switched to left back that his true potential began to shine.
Bidwell's progression through the ranks was nothing short of meteoric. He made his debut for Everton's U18 team early in the 2008-09 season, going on to make 19 Premier Academy League appearances that year. His impressive form earned him a call-up to the reserve team, where he made his debut against Manchester United in the Premier Reserve League North.
The 2009-10 season proved to be a landmark year for Bidwell. He signed a scholarship deal with Everton in the summer of 2009 and received his maiden call-up to the first team for a Europa League group stage game against BATE Borisov. On 17 December 2009, Bidwell made his European debut, becoming Everton's youngest ever player to play in a European game at just 16 years and 270 days old.
The 2010-11 season saw Bidwell captain the U18s to the Premier Academy League title, earning him the esteemed Academy Player of the Year award. Despite his impressive form, Bidwell failed to break into the first team and was sent out on loan to gain valuable experience.
On 24 November 2011, Bidwell signed for League One side Brentford on loan until 8 January 2012. This marked the beginning of a series of loan spells, including stints at Brentford and Swindon Town, before eventually departing Everton in 2013.
