About James

"I’m a third year Physics student and professional rugby player from Buckinghamshire. I have played rugby since I was 5 years old and currently play for Wasps whilst being on loan to Yorkshire Carnegie in the championship.

After I finish university this year I hope to resign at Wasps full time for the future! I have been with the club since I was 13 years old and it has always been a dream of mine. Outside of rugby, I love to cook, socialise and play squash, with a keen interest in movies. I went to Merchant Taylor’s School and have lived in that area since I was born."
