James McAvoy was awarded a BAFTA as "Rising Star" at the weekend. James joined GHK youth section at the same time as Neil (Mitch) Mitchell and Jason Carlin playing with under 16s & 18s for a couple of seasons. A useful centre he had to chose between rugby and acting. He was always going to make more money as an actor!
