Tommy Joined HGSD in November 2021 playing 10 at club level. Going through DPP Tommy was selected to join the Newcastle Falcons training group at the end of his U15 season. During this time Tommy was asked to move to 9 where he had played when he was younger. Tommy transitioned into the position through lots of hard work, He played U16s Academy and a game for U17s Academy side and he gained a place at Gosforth Academy for 6th form. Unfortunately in the summer trainings of 2024 Tommy lost his place in Newcastle Academy however by Christmas had found his way back into the squad to prepare for the academy games at the start of 2025.
"The sessions helped me massively to develop my skills to a point that allows me to play at a high level, and be confident whilst doing so. When I first started with HomeGrown Sports Development the sessions helped me get over and excel past a major injury. The sessions were a huge help in getting my enthusiasm to play and confidence back and I would not have developed the same way as a player without them." Copy Copy
