Early years

Tempest went to school in Bracknell, Berkshire at Garth Hill Comprehensive, leaving in 1980 to sign for Fulham.

Career in Hong Kong

Tempest arrived in Hong Kong in 1989 and played for South China. He moved to Eastern but later returned to South China. He was the top scorer in the Hong Kong First Division League on a record five occasions (1989–90, 1990–91, 1992–93, 1993–94, 1994–95).
