Tom has been a member of the ACT Emerging Comets team that contests the NSW DCA competition for the past four years. The talented young player’s contribution of 244 runs for the season guided his team into the finals for the first time.
Tom is also a member Cricket NSW/ACT Southern Zone Academy program along with other locals Jack Allen and Zak Keogh. Tom has had a busy representative season, recently taking part in the Under 18 Jeffrey Cup carnival in Queanbeyan.
