With maturity beyond his years, Jack has become a crucial component of the England and Great Britain teams since making his international debut in October 2018.

Just a few weeks later he helped England to a fourth-placed finish at the Men's Hockey World Cup and has barely missed a game since. That led to him featuring at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and scoring his second international goal in the opening game against South Africa.

A versatile player capable of playing in defence or midfield, he is also a highly intelligent reader of the game and a natural leader too.

In the summer of 2022 he helped England win a superb Commonwealth Games bronze medal in front of a home crowd in Birmingham.

One of the first graduates of the GB Elite Development Programme (EDP), Jack also lists winning the 2018 BUCS Championship with Durham University – alongside fellow international Rhys Smith – as one of his proudest hockey achievements.
