Harri Jenkins

Harri, started his wheelchair jounrey at Hawks after being scouted by Adam. One of the quickest players to ever join the talent program Harri is now a member of GB elite and is due to compete for the first time at the Europeans this April (2025). Work commitments of his partner meant Harri had to move up country and he is now part of West Coast Crash. If you listen out carefully you can still hear his strange Hawk cry after our team shouts!
