Żurrieq

Stephen Wellman began his career playing for his local side Żurrieq for the 1999–00 season. Stephen's performances where one shining light, in an otherwise disappointing season for Żurrieq, the club finishing in 10th position in the Maltese Premier League, and were relegated to the Maltese First Division, Wellman made 22 appearances and scored six goals.

Stephen's second season with Żurrieq began with the hope of helping the club make a swift return to the Maltese Premier League, however it was again another disastrous finish as the club again recorded a 10th-place finish for the 2000–01 season, and were again relegated, this time to the Maltese Second Division.

Floriana

Following the demise of Żurrieq, Wellman joined Maltese Premier League side Floriana for the 2001–02 season. Stephen slotted into the squad almost instantly, and in his debut season, Wellman made 17 appearances and scored one goal, helping the club to record a 5th-place finish in the Maltese Premier League.

Stephen went into the 2002–03 season hoping to help Floriana improve on their previous season. however the club suffered a disappointing season and narrowly avoided relegation, finishing in 8th position, Wellman did not have a great deal of impact on the club's fortunes that season as he only made 5 appearances, and failed to score.

Stephen made his return to the Floriana first team for the 2003–04 season. He helped the club return to the championship pool, finishing in 6th position in the Maltese Premier League. Wellman made 17 appearances and scored one goal during the season.

The 2004–05, proved to be Stephen's last with Floriana. Wellman helped Floriana record another 6th-place finish in the Maltese Premier League, making 19 appearances and scoring five goals.

Marsaxlokk

Stephen Wellman left Floriana, and was sold to fellow Maltese Premier League side Marsaxlokk for the 2005–06 season. Wellman continued to show some of his best form with his new club, and helped Marsaxlokk to a 3rd-place finish in the Maltese Premier League. Stephen made 25 appearances, but failed to score any goals during his debut season.

Stephen and Marsaxlokk made history during the 2006–07 season, as Marsaxlokk won the Maltese Premier League title for the first time in the club's history. Wellman played a big part in winning the title for Marsaxlokk, making 18 appearances, but again failing to find the net.

Wellman went into the 2007–08 season hoping to help Marsaxlokk win more silverware, however the club found themselves victims of their own success, as many of the stars of the previous season left the club for pastures new, the likes of Daniel Bogdanovic, Justin Haber and Jamie Pace to name a few. This left the club short of talent, Stephen however stuck around and despite the club's loss of players, they still managed to record a very creditable 2nd-place finish in the Maltese Premier League, with Wellman making 21 appearances and even chipping in with two goals.

The 2008–09 season proved to be Stephen's last with Marsaxlokk. The club had an extremely disappointing start to the season by their own high standards, and only managed to gain a place in the championship pool by beating Msida Saint-Joseph in the final game of the first round. Wellman and William Camenzuli had found themselves frozen out and were serving suspensions, imposed on them for breach of club rules. Stephen left the club in January 2009, he had made 11 appearances, without scoring, and despite the club's extremely disappointing start to the season, they managed to finish the season in 4th position in the Maltese Premier League.
