To mark the occasion, CITC celebrated Jamie during City’s Premier League home game with Brentford on Saturday, November 12.
Throughout 2022, Jamie set himself two extreme challenges as part of campaign all in the aid of raising money for CITC and Cancer Fund for Children in his native Ireland.
Jamie has previously run six ultra-marathons in six days across the Sahara Desert during the Marathon Des Sables as part of the first challenge of his 2022 campaign.
In December, he will set sail across the Atlantic Ocean as he rows solo 3,000 miles to Antigua from the Canary Islands as part of his Nothing Ventured Campaign.
During the match, Jamie spoke about his previous challenge, before explaining how he has prepared for his solo Atlantic row on the Matchday Live show and at the side of the pitch at half-time.
Fans in the Etihad Stadium were also shown a video of Phil Foden meeting Jamie and learning all about his boat, which will also be his home for nearly three months.
Jamie could spend up to three months on his own rowing the world’s toughest ocean as part of the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Rowing Challenge.
Rowing up to 16 hours a day, navigating storms, sharks and loneliness, Jamie has a huge challenge on his hands.
Jamie has worked with City’s Academy teams for more than four years.
Though having coached some of the very best junior age players at City, it was his experience teaching children in rural India where his ambition to champion opportunities for disadvantaged children first took root, inspiring Jamie’s incredible next steps and fundraising efforts.
CITC’s portion will support a mental health programme, City Thrive, supporting people in Manchester under the age of 25.
