Pasher originally made contact with Newcastle through a local coach and his son, David Edgar, a fellow Canadian who was also at Newcastle. Between the ages of 9 and 16, Pasher trained with the club during his two-week school break each March and for two months each summer. He played for the academy between the ages of 9 and 13 before being part of the first team reserves between age 14 and 16. A combination of UK work permit difficulties, injury, and wishing to return home to Canada prompted Pasher to leave the club, at which time he joined the TFC Academy in the Canadian Soccer League.{{cite web|title=Hounds Insider: Tyler Pasher|url=http://riverhounds.com/video/hounds-insider-tyler-pasher/|publisher=Pittsburgh Riverhounds|accessdate=11 May 2015|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518091333/http://riverhounds.com/video/hounds-insider-tyler-pasher/|archivedate=18 May 2015}}{{Cite web|url=http://canadiansoccerleague.com/teams/tfc.asp|title=Canadian Soccer League|date=2013-01-24|access-date=2017-09-03|url-status=bot: unknown|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130124193626/http://canadiansoccerleague.com/teams/tfc.asp|archivedate=24 January 2013}}
