Pearn was a member of the England and Great Britain squads, making his debut for England against the Netherlands in the 1995 Champions Trophy in Berlin. He scored his first international goal against India in the tournament to become the youngest player to score for England at just 18 years old.

Pearn played club hockey for Gloucester City before joining Reading for the 1995/1996 season.[2] It was at Reading that he gained his major honours, participating in the 1998 Commonwealth Games[3] and 1998 Men's Hockey World Cup[4] before representing Great Britain at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, in the field hockey tournament.[5][6]
