An enthusiastic cricketer from an early age, John Simpson played in the Lancashire league for Haslingden cricket club first team when only ten years old. Simpson seems destined to play professional representative cricket, having represented Lancashire in every age group from Under-11 upwards, and earning his first call-up to Engand's Under-19 squad for the 2005 tour of Bangladesh and impressing enough to gain a place in the World Cup squad. A wicketkeeper-batsman, he was taken on as an MCC Young Cricketer in 2008 and impressed Middlesex enough to be given a contract until the end of 2009. He spent the 2008-09 winter at the Darren Lehmann Academy.
