Jamie; who’s first love is cricket, has been playing regularly for the Essex 2nd XI and putting in some outstanding performances all season. Ultimately his goal was always to gain selection for the Essex first team squad and his hard work has obviously paid off.

Everyone at The Placement Group, especially proud dad Steve are delighted for Jamie and wishes him every success for the future.
