George Brown (born August 19, 1935) is an American former soccer forward who played his entire career in the United States.

He signed with an amateur team in 1950 at the age of fifteen and was highly successful until suffering a knee injury in 1957.

He worked for Exxon, an oil company, for over thirty years, coaching youth soccer throughout the world.

Born on August 19, 1935, in Ealing, England, Brown spent his youth in Troon, Scotland before moving to the United States with his family in 1948.

Jim began his professional career in the U.S. and was a member of the U.S. national team at the 1930 FIFA World Cup.

At that time the German-Hungarians, although playing in a small regional league, boasted some of the top U.S. players, including John Souza, Walter Bahr and Joe Maca, all future members of the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

This collection of talent paid off for the German-Hungarians as they took three consecutive league titles and the 1956 New York State Cup.

On April 4, 1957, Brown earned his only cap with the U.S. national team in a 6–0 loss to Mexico in a World Cup qualifier.

In order to pay for his education, Brown coached the school's freshman soccer and varsity tennis teams.

After retiring from Exxon, he and his wife owned tourist cottages in Cape Breton Nova Scotia, Canada.
