Early life

Jackson was born in Canada but moved to Barrow-in-Furness, England, with his parents at the age of three. He played rugby league at school but his first senior rugby experience came in rugby union after he took up an apprenticeship at a shipyard. He switched to rugby league when he was offered professional terms by Barrow in 1950 at the age of 18.

Playing career

Phil Jackson represented Great Britain while at Barrow between 1952 and 1956 against France (2 non-Test matches).[4] He also won one cap for England v Other Nationalities on 12 September 1955 as part of the 1955-56 European Rugby League Championship, played at Central Park, Wigan.[citation needed]

Coaching career

Injury forced him to retire in 1959 but in 1960 he moved to Australia and was tempted back into playing by the Goulburn Workers Club in New South Wales.[7][8] In the role as player coach, he led the club to a Group 8 premiership.[9] The club was also awarded the Clayton Cup for being the best performed team in country New South Wales in 1960.[10] He continued coaching after retiring as a player and eventually settled in Wagga Wagga.
