Harrison Carlyon is a professional cricketer who plays for Jersey.[1] In October 2016 Carlyon was selected for Jersey's squad for the 2016 ICC World Cricket League Division Four in Los Angeles.[2] He played in Jersey's first fixture of the tournament against Oman.[3][4] At the age of fifteen, he became the youngest player to represent Jersey in an international cricket match, breaking the previous record held by team-mate Jonty Jenner.[5]

In the final match for Jersey in the Division Four tournament, the fifth-place playoff against Italy, he played alongside his father and team manager, Tony Carlyon.[6] Injuries in the Jersey team forced his father to play, becoming the first father and son to play together in an international match for Jersey.[7][8]
